Update 1 June 2015 – Three questions from the CCWG-Accountability proposal were inadvertently omitted from the questions on this page. They are in the proposal document, but not copied over to the public comment input below.

Please consider the following three questions in your responses to the CCWG-Accountability public comment:

1. The CCWG-Accountability welcomes feedback on whether there is a need, as part of Work Stream 1 (pre-Transition), to provide for any other means for other parts of the ICANN system to be able to propose new Fundamental Bylaws or changes to existing ones.  In particular, the CCWG-Accountability welcomes feedback on whether the Mission should be subject to even higher thresholds of Board or community assent.
   (paragraph 126 of the CCWG-Accountability proposal)
2. Do you agree that the introduction of a community mechanism to empower the community over certain Board decisions would enhance ICANN's accountability?
   (paragraph 189 of the CCWG-Accountability proposal)
3. What guidance, if any, would you provide to the CCWG-Accountability regarding the proposed options? Please provide the underlying rationale in terms of required accountability features or protection against certain contingencies.
   (paragraph 190 of the CCWG-Accountability proposal)
