GNSO-TPR WG recommendations to Change of Registrant Data (Rec #25-28)
Steinar's recommendation is in favor of eliminating Section II from the Transfer Policy; instead, the working group recommends that a standalone “Change of Registrant Data” policy MUST be established, existing outside of the revised Transfer Policy. For the avoidance of doubt, the working group is not recommending a new PDP to establish this standalone policy; instead, the working group is recommending the Change of Registrant Data Policy be created as part of the implementation of these policy recommendations.

The ICANN Board Anti-Harassment Working Group is proposing revisions to theICANN Community Anti-Harassment Policyand is seeking community feedback on the changes. The Policy now includes a definition of harassment, additional examples of harassment, and expanded and strengthened reporting and complaint procedures. It offers clarity around the role of the Ombuds, including details regarding updates throughout the evaluation process, complaints received from ICANN staff, referrals to the Board, and the resolution process. There is also the opportunity to provide feedback regarding the name of the Policy. Community input is welcome on any or all of the four elements: (I) the name of the Policy, (II) the Policy and terms of participation, (III) the definition of harassment and examples provided, and/or (IV) the reporting and complaint procedure.
The Third Accountability and Transparency Review (ATRT3) Recommendation 3.6 calls for Organizational Reviews to be evolved into a Continuous Improvement Program (CIP).

The PTI Board has developed this draft Strategic Plan with IANA staff and the broader ICANN org to cover 2025 through 2030. The plan defines PTI's strategy in delivering the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA) functions and represents a subset of the ICANN’s strategy. The plan provides an in-depth look at the IANA-related strategic objectives that will help PTI continue to provide secure and accountable management of the Internet's unique identifier systems. Your insights are crucial to ensuring its success and alignment with community needs.
The Annual OP&B sets forth the focus of effort and organizational commitment for the current fiscal year. The ICANN Bylaws and PTI Bylaws require the preparation and adoption of an Annual OP&B prior to the start of each fiscal year. PTI is an affiliate of ICANN and, through contracts and subcontracts with ICANN, is responsible for the operations of the IANA functions. PTI has its own Bylaws that require the organization to develop its own annual PTI Operating Plan & Budget (OP&B). The PTI OP&B includes all costs directly related to the delivery of the IANA services: performing day-to-day operations, developing, and evolving tools and systems, reporting on performance and customer satisfaction, and maintaining the security and integrity of key elements of Internet infrastructure.
