Notes

OFP Issue 1

Tomslin

Damon will assist.  I will assist as this overlaps with Budget Issue 2.  Be specific in our request.

OFP Issue 2

Maxim

Might need to speak with staff concerning tools.  Review 5YS&OP (p. 28-30) and compare with FY 22 OFP (p. 28-30).

OFP Issue 3

Phillipe/John

For COVID-19 references review FY 22 OFP at p. 3, 11, 27, 86, 103-105, 169-171.

OFP Issue 4

Osvaldo

This comment is like issue 1 but focused on funding working groups.  See last year’s comment at Section 2 (pp. 4-5).

OFP Issue 5

Tomslin

Go back and review the 1/13/21 SCBO meeting where Berry covered all of the upcoming workstreams.




Budget Issue 1

Kristian

From last year’s comment:  “The GNSO Council asserts that it is important the initiatives, tools and resources associated with PDP 3.0 should be explicitly individualized in the activities, and not just mentioned as an example. This would enable the GNSO Council to adequately evaluate whether the recommended changes associated with PDP 3.0 are being adequately funded.”  Search the budget for references to PDP 3.0 being implemented.

Budget Issue 2

John

See OFP 1

Budget Issue 3

Maxim

See Last Year’s comment at Section 2, p. 6.

Budget Issue 4

Kristian

Last year “the GNSO Council questions whether 4 FTE and $500,000 is sufficient allocation of funds to support data, research, and study project requests for implementation work for the Competition, Consumer Trust, and Consumer Choice Review Team (CCT-RT) recommendations on data collection, Phases 1 and 2 of the Temporary Specification for gTLD Registration Data Expedited Policy Development Process Team (EPDP), and the anticipated policy recommendations from the New gTLD Subsequent Procedures PDP.”  Look at whether this was adequate and what is budgeted for FY 22.

Budget Issue 5

Greg

Last year we commented that “In reviewing this section of the FY21 Budget, the GNSO Council notes that it needs to better understand the criteria by which some events are listed under this functional activity, while others or not. The GNSO Council suggests that criteria are explained or that that all events be listed. This is a critical component to transparency.”  Look at p. 11 of FY22 Budget and compare with FY21 Budget at p. 15.
