On 10 June 2020, Rafik Dammak, GNSO Council liaison to the EPDP, submitted a Project Change Request (PCR) for Council consideration. Of note, the PCR asks that the new target delivery date be extended from 11 June 2020 to 31 July 2020 for the delivery of the Final Report for priority 1 items (i.e., SSAD). The PCR also informs the Council that additional time is needed if the EPDP Team is to address a couple of remaining priority 2 items and asks the Council to consider how best to address these. Related to those priority 2 items, Rafik submitted a framework document to both identify the list of topics and suggest possible next steps for the Council to consider. On 22 June 2020, the Council received a letter from the GAC, noting the importance they place in the priority 2 items.

Here, the Council will discuss both the PCR and next steps framework for priority 2 items.

Council leadership and staff developed a draft work plan for the Council’s consideration. Previously, the focus was on prioritization of the GNSO’s work, which implies that the work should be ranked in order of priority. However, Council leadership determined that it might be more practical to think of this exercise more simply as establishing a work plan, which does still consider the urgency of the work, but also looks at each element of work in a more granular fashion and identifies potential dependencies. What this allows the Council to do is to potentially carve out pieces of work from a project that might be initiated in the near-term, some of which may then serve as the preparatory/informational basis for Council next steps. The Council discussed this approach during several Council meetings, where there was apparent support for the approach, and solicited feedback from Councilors and their respective SG/Cs. Considering that input, Council leadership has and staff have prepared a near-term work plan [INSERT LINK} that suggests framework that considers the overall program portfolio and dependencies, which helps identify which specific projects (or project elements) that the Council can initiate now or in the near future. Staff will provide a preview of the next evolution of the Council's work plan management tool.

Here, the Council will discuss the specific work suggested to be initiated and if applicable, validate it as the near-term path forwardreceive a preview of the newest version of the tool, with the intention of validating the approach, which is understood to help identify near-term work that may be initiated.
