In addition, the ALAC will be voting on a motion proposed by Alan Greenberg to create an At-Large Ad-hoc Working Group on Accountability and Governance. Kindly see the motion drafted by Alan below:

Whereas a CWG to include but not be limited to the ICANN AC/SOs is being chartered to address ICANN accountability and governance issues
related to the IANA Stewardship transition and possibly other ICANN accountability and governance issues.

Whereas the ALAC believes that its contributions to the CWG should be coordinated.

Therefore:

Resolved that the ALAC creates an At-Large Ad-Hoc Working Group on Accountability and Governance. Membership in this WG will be managed by At-Large staff.
--end of motion--
