Continuing on a program proposed since ICANN81 by the GAC co-leads for DNS Abuse (European Commission, Japan, and the United States), covering the 2024 global amendments to ICANN’s Registry Agreement and Registrar Accreditation Agreement, which created obligations for domain name registries and registrars to mitigate or otherwise disrupt DNS Abuse, and taking into account recent proposals for “micro” policy development processes and compliance updates, during ICANN83 the GAC will discuss:

The timeline and next steps for GNSO work on DNS Abuse in the reconvened GNSO Small Team on DNS Abuse
Potential topics for targeted policy development or future contractual negotiations between ICANN and Contracted Parties.During ICANN83, the focus is planned on next steps ICANN, the community and the GAC can take to elevate standards.
