The ALAC was asked the following question:

Do you support the ALAC Ratification Motion: CCWG-Accountability Work Stream 2? 

Whereas, the At-Large Advisory Committee (ALAC) is a Chartering Organization of the ICANN Cross-Community Working Group on Accountability (CCWG-Accountability); 

Whereas, on 06 March 2016 the ALAC ratified the full set of twelve Recommendations of the CCWG-Accountability Work Steam 1 (WS1); 

Whereas, Recommendation 12 of WS1 initiated a second phase of additional topics to be addressed – Work Stream 2 (WS2); 

Whereas the ALAC and its Members and Participants in WS2 have actively participated in the WS2 activities; 

Whereas the ALAC has reviewed the WS2 Recommendations and approved them with one caveat; 

Therefore: 

The ALAC ratifies the Recommendations of the CCWG-Accountability Work Stream 2 with the following caveat to be addressed during the Board deliberations on the WS2 Recommendation and the ensuing implementation: 

“The recommendations formulated in the various sections of this report all have merit in advancing ICANN's transparency and accountability. However, taken together, they may amount to a daunting burden on ICANN Org and its volunteer community. For this reason, the ALAC recommends that, as the recommendations are implemented, ICANN should take an approach minimizing the impact and work associated with following these recommendations."
