Manal Ismail, GAC Chair
The GAC will discuss the release of 2-character country codes as second-level domain names and the handling of governments concerns.
Further implementation work by ICANN Org to be reviewed by the GAC inter-sessionally and at the face to face meeting at ICANN 62; and feedback to be provided to ICANN Org if appropriate.
2. PUBLIC POLICY AND SUBSTANTIVE ISSUES SESSIONS
2b: 2-letter country/territory codes at the second level
This remains an issue of concern to some, but not all, GAC members.
The GAC was briefed by ICANN Org (Global Domains Division) on existing measures to enable governments to access information on relevant applications and associated complaints procedures; and on possible enhancements to these measures to further assist governments. Several GAC members sought a user-friendly space on the ICANN website that makes it clear what is happening with a particular code in the DNS market and how governments can communicate concerns.
