ALAC statement on the announcement regarding the IANA stewardship transition
The ALAC welcomes the announcement recently made by the U.S. Commerce Department’s NTIA and celebrates the designation of ICANN as the institution in charge of convening the global stakeholders to develop a proposal to transition the stewardship over the IANA functions, so far performed by the NTIA, by designing a multi stakeholder mechanism that allows said stewardship to be carried out by the broader internet community.
We trust the design process will be conducted in an open and inclusive fashion that allows the various communities, within and outside of ICANN, to be properly considered and taken into account by adequately incorporating and addressing their concerns and thoughts in the final outcome of this collaborative effort.
Furthermore, we call on leadership to ensure that any mechanism that replaces the stewardship over the IANA functions is based on:
- Enhancing the multi stakeholder holder model;
- Maintaining the security, stability and resiliency of the internet DNS;
- Meeting the needs and expectations of the global customers and partners of the IANA services;
- Maintaining the openness of the Internet;
- Providing full and effective accountability from the new responsible of the stewardship in front of the broader stakeholder community by establishing an adequate set of checks and balances; and,
- Guaranteeing the common good and the public interest as principles to better serve the end users.
We commit to contributing to the process so that any outcome is a result of a bottom-up, consensus driven and multi stakeholder effort in which the end users are properly taken into account.
