Whereas, on 22 October 2011, the Board approved the initial membership of the Board-Governmental Advisory Committee Working Group, which was formed to lead the Board's coordination with the GAC on the implementation of the JWG recommendations and the GAC-related recommendations from the ATRT.

Whereas, the Board Governance Committee recommends that Erika Mann should be added to the membership of the Working Group.

Resolved (2011.10.28.12), the Board approves Erika Mann as a member of the Board-Governmental Advisory Committee Working Group.

Rationale for Resolution:

This working group provides a formal mechanism to oversee the implementation of the recommendations. As required for assessment within the Affirmation of Commitments, there is no security and stability impact on the DNS nor any affect on ICANN's fiscal resources as a result of this action.
