At-Large Workspace: Proposed Fundamental Bylaws Amendments Related to Grant Program
The Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers is seeking input on a proposed amendment to Article 4, Sections 4.2 and 4.3 of the ICANN Bylaws. The proposed Bylaws amendment is designed to specifically exclude the use of the ICANN’s Reconsideration and Independent Review Processes (collectively, “Accountability Mechanisms”) to challenge decisions on individual applications in the ICANN Grant Program. This proposal replaces the earlier proposed amendments to Article 4, Section 4.1 to set out a general process for how the ICANN community can limit access to ICANN’s Accountability Mechanisms.
