1. Roll Call & SOI Updates (5 minutes)

2. Confirmation of agenda (Chair)

b. Legal Committee Update

• Legal Committee’s questions were circulated yesterday. Please register any concerns by tomorrow, 12:00 UTC – the questions will be sent to Bird & Bird. If there are minor questions, objections or modifications, the Legal Committee could do a quick modification/discussion and second silent procedure by Monday, COB Los Angeles. If there is another objection, it will go to plenary on Thursday.
• There seems to be some duplication within the questions. It would be helpful if this Team can accept B&B’s advice in good faith?
• Is there a reason the reverse look-ups question was included when it was original WHOIS feature – this seems potentially wasteful.
• Some members believe it is important to seek further legal advice on this matter.
• Please submit proposed modifications by COB tomorrow, Friday, 17 January. Legal Committee will review the objections during its next Legal Committee. Questions not objected to will be sent to B&B on Monday.

3.Discussion of models for inclusion / recommendation in Initial Report

-                A small team met twice yesterday to discuss the CPH proposal

-                There was one clear agreement and understanding – when it comes to initial steps related to accreditation -these functions should be automated to the extent possible.

-                CPH proposal could constitute a good basis for the work. However, some groups (GAC, BC, IPC) consider that CPH proposal is not going far enough, and the preferred option would be a fully centralized system. Discussed the possibility of a more dynamic approach, wherein the disclosure could be done in a combination of ways – some full y automated and some could be fully manual due to the nature of the disclosure request. The smaller group will continue online deliberations and submit a proposal before the next meeting on Thursday, 23 January.

-                Awaiting GAC’s proposal for accreditation for law enforcement

-                Aim is to formulate evolution and transformation as we go – currently, the aim is to solve how to put this in writing

5. See issues list – https://community.icann.org/x/BQZxBw

• Question of inclusion of use cases: currently, they are referenced via a URL
• Use cases were intended to be a discussion tool and not a finished product. They were intended to be used to develop the building blocks – concerned with including these in the Initial (or Final) report. Recommend not including them at all, even as a hyperlink
• Explore including an example use case as part of the report
• Action: Support Staff to clearly state the context of the use cases – prepared but not agreed, used to finetune thinking – those who are interested can reference, but these were not agreed and do not constitute policy recommendations.
• ISPCP is offering to propose language in reference to the recommendation – that may help the team decide if this is helpful.
