The GAC will discuss the future of its independent secretariat and the potential next steps.
The GAC leadership and interested GAC members, with the support of existing donors, will form a small task group to identify sustainable funding options to be operational after January 2019 and continue to explore possible ways in which funding from ICANN could be obtained.
ACIG Secretariat will review and report on other independently funded secretariat arrangements across the ICANN community.
6. INTERNAL GAC MATTERS
6d: Independent GAC Secretariat
The GAC Secretariat Donors Association informed the GAC that funding of the Secretariat at 1.0 FTE appears sufficient for services to be provided under the current contract until the end of 2018.
ACIG Pty Ltd (through Tom Dale) informed the GAC that, for commercial reasons, the company will not seek an extension of the contract beyond 31 January 2019. Depending on funding, and the agreement of the GAC Chair, ACIG will provide services until the end of the Barcelona meeting or until the formal end of the contract.
