ICANN Independent Review Advisory Committee
CALL FOR EXPRESSIONS OF INTEREST
The ICANN Bylaws call for the Initial Board to "adopt policies and
procedures for independent third-party review of Board actions alleged by an
affected party to have violated the Corporation's articles of incorporation
or bylaws." [See Bylaws, Article III, Section 4(b)]
Accordingly, the Initial Board has established the Independent Review
Advisory Committee (IRAC) to advise it on an appropriate mechanism for
independent third-party review of Board actions. [See Bylaws, Article VII,
Section 3] The IRAC will consist of up to eight members, including ICANN
Directors Linda Wilson and Hans Kraaijenbrink. Linda Wilson has been
appointed chair of the IRAC.
ICANN invites expressions of interest from individuals willing to serve on
this committee.
The ICANN Board will select the committee with the goal of assembling a
diverse and broadly representative group, in terms of both geography and
professional experience. Expressions of interest should be directed to
Andrew McLaughlin ([EMAIL PROTECTED]), by midnight, 14 March, 1999, US
Eastern Standard time. Expressions of interest need not be more than 100
words, and should include information about professional background and the
contribution the applicant will make towards the work of the IRAC.
The IRAC will commence deliberations in mid-March, 1999. Its work will be
conducted via phone or the Internet, to be completed by 25 May, 1999, at
which time the IRAC will present its recommendations to the Board.
Committee members will be expected to devote sufficient time to the work of
the committee to achieve this very tight schedule.
