GNSO IRTP D Community Workshop

This is a Community Workshop during with the Inter-Registrar Transfer Policy Part D Policy Development Process Working Group will present its work and preliminary recommendation to the wider GNSO and ICANN community. The Group has started its work in February 2013 and has just finalized its Initial Report. This workshop is to inform the community of the Working Group's achievements and present its recommendations on the six Charter questions:

1. Whether reporting requirements for registries and dispute providers should be developed, in order to make precedent and trend information available to the community and allow reference to past cases in dispute submissions;
2. Whether additional provisions should be included in the TDRP (Transfer Dispute Resolution Policy) on how to handle disputes when multiple transfers have occurred;
3. Whether dispute options for registrants should be developed and implemented as part of the policy (registrants currently depend on registrars to initiate a dispute on their behalf);
4. Whether requirements or best practices should be put into place for registrars to make information on transfer dispute resolution options available to registrants;
5. Whether existing penalties for policy violations are sufficient or if additional provisions/penalties for specific violations should be added into the policy;
6. Whether the universal adoption and implementation of EPP AuthInfo codes has eliminated the need of FOAs.
