NomCom Review Questionnaire
by Aftab Siddiqui 15 Jan '20

15 Jan '20

Hi Everyone, Recently, NomCom Review Implementation Work Group (NomComRIWG) reached out to us to provide some feedback. They are in process of implementing 27 recommendations. Details of RIWG are available here: NomComRIWG wiki: https://community.icann.org/x/aBpIBg Detailed Implementation Plan: PDF <https://www.icann.org/en/system/files/files/nomcom-implementation-plan-15se…> The questions are related to Recommendation 1 (Formalize a job description for NomCom members that emphasizes experience, diversity, independence, and provide that description to the SOs/ACs.) and Recommendation 7 (NomCom members, except for leadership positions, should serve two-year terms, and be limited to a maximum of two terms.). Kevin, Jorge and I drafted a response to these questions. Please have a look and provide suggestions. ====== Q1. What is your annual timetable to select NomCom members? A1. The time table for 2019: Announcement of call for nominations for 2020 ICANN NomCom: 5 July 2019 Nomination period ends: 28 July 2019 Evaluation of nominations by the ASO AC: 28 July – 7 August 2019 Voting period by the ASO AC: 7 August – 14 August 2019 Announcement of selected delegate: 15 August 2019 Q2. Do you always adhere to your timetable? Why not? A2. The timetable is set each year based on timing to fit the calendar. Additionally, it has been moved forward based on requests from the NomCom to provide our appointed member earlier. Q3. Would you be able to select a candidate earlier in the year, if not what are the obstacles? A3. The request can be considered, If appropriate notice and rationale is given by the NomCom. The final date requested by the NomCom should be available in the prior year to allow for calendaring. Q4. What document do you have that describes the roles and responsibilities for NomCom members, other than the Bylaws requirements? A4. The roles and responsibilities are set out as part of the call for nominations. No additional formal documents are utilised. https://aso.icann.org/nomination-call-for-aso-representative-to-2020-icann-… Q5. What specific content would you like to see in a ‘job description’ for future NomCom members? A5. The ASO AC would welcome any additional description from the NomCom to assist us in the selection process. The expected work and time commitments are of importance. Q6. Which information, if any, on desired diversity would you incorporate into the job description? A6. If the NomCom has additional requirements, they should be included as early as possible. The guidance provided should be non-binding to our selection process. Q7. What concerns do you have, if any, if the NomComRIWG proposes that the ASO NomCom member is one of the seats appointed for one year in the first cycle and then switched to two-year appointments after that? A7. One year term is based on the ICANN Bylaws (Section 8.3). It gives the ASO AC the opportunity to review the performance of the appointee and follows our current work plan and overall structure. A change to the number of years would require additional discussion. Regards, Aftab A. Siddiqui
