Dear community leaders,
On 26 April, ICANN Board Chair Tripti Sinha sent a letter to you
requesting feedback from your respective community groups on the
question of rebalancing the Nominating Committee (NomCom) by *30 June
2023*. As noted in the letter, the ICANN Board wishes to engage with the
community to understand the community’s views on this topic. The Board
is specifically seeking input on the following questions:
1. What does it mean to have a balanced NomCom at a point in time? For
example, what criteria would you apply to measure or assess whether the
NomCom is balanced? And further, how can one test whether or not the
NomCom is balanced?
2. Do you support the view that the current composition of the NomCom
needs to be rebalanced? Please explain why or why not.
3. How frequently does the balance need to be measured or assessed?
4. How do you suggest that the NomCom’s composition be rebalanced?
5. Who should conduct this work, and how should it be conducted?
6. How would your community group prioritize consideration of this issue
within your planning efforts?
The letter includes additional background on the work to date on this
topic, including by the NomCom Review Implementation Working Group that
was set up to implement the outcomes of the Second NomCom Review (see
https://www.icann.org/resources/pages/correspondence
<https://www.icann.org/resources/pages/correspondence> for each of the
letters sent to all 21 SOAC leaders). In addition, on 25 May 2023, the
Chair of the Board’s Organizational Effectiveness Committee, Katrina
Sataki, and members of ICANN org’s Reviews Support & Accountability team
gave a presentation to the GNSO Council that covered the present
structure of NomCom, a brief history of the rebalancing matter and
forthcoming actions. As such, you may find the presentation
<https://gnso.icann.org/sites/default/files/policy/2023/presentation/presentation-gnso-council-nomcom-rebalancing-revised-25may23-en.pdf> and

00:14:10 - 00:31:38) helpful in discussing any planned feedback with
your members.
Please do not hesitate to let me or your staff support teams know if you
require any additional information before the requested feedback date of
30 June. Thank you!
Cheers
Mary
