RE: [council] Travel support needed for Sydney
The IPC intends to use the 3.5 travel supported slots,
and may wish to have additional support to facilitate presentations and
discussion on the IRT output. We support the use of residual DNSO
funds.
As to the type of assistance being requested, the IPC
probably will not be able to provide that information by 27
March. We have raised with ICANN staff the structural difficulty
that the IPC will have in identifying travel support recipients
by 6 April, namely, that the IPC amended its by-laws to have elections 30
days before the new Council is seated, that those elections have not
occurred yet, and that they will not occur before April 6. We have
not yet received a response from ICANN staff as to whether there is any
workaround to the April 6 deadline given our structural
problem.

Hi,
The Travel Drafting Team would like to make its
recommendations for allocation of the GNSO reserved funds as soon as possible.
To assist us in that task please review the list below regarding ICANN
provided travel funding left for Sydney.
Does your constituency
request travel assistance beyond that or will not need assistance?
If
assistance is needed, please let us know the number of travelers and type of
assistance being requested (airfare, per diem, or full).
If assistance
is not needed please let us know.
We would like this information as
soon as possible, the best would be by end of day Friday 27
March.
ICANN provided travel funding left for this fiscal year (in
terms of
full support slots):
NCUC - 1
ISPC - 1
RyC - 4
BC -
1
RrC - 2
IPC - 3.5
Regards to
all
