LOS ANGELES - The Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers Board of Directors (ICANN Board) is seeking community input on the proposed amendment to exclude the use of the ICANN's Reconsideration and Independent Review Processes (collectively, "Accountability Mechanisms") to challenge decisions on individual applications in the ICANN Grant Program. This proposal replaces the earlier proposed amendments to Article 4, Section 4.1 to set out a general process for how the ICANN community can limit access to ICANN's Accountability Mechanisms and is offered to support the full implementation of the Cross-Community Working Group on New gTLD Auction Proceeds (CCWG-AP) Recommendation 7, according to the official website of ICANN.

The Public Comment period will be open for 40 days.

Submissions Opening Date: Wednesday, August 7, 2024.

Submissions Closing Date: Monday, September 16, 2024.
