<p class=MsoNormal><font size=3 face="Times New Roman"><span style='font-size:
12.0pt'>Here is an example of why I think its a problem. During my first
year on the MAG, I worked hard to try to get "human rights" as one of
the cross-cutting issues to address all themes. A number of civil society
members on the MAG and a few govt folks also advocated for this and it was about
to pass. Then, at the the last moment, a certain govt official on the MAG
(1 person representing a country with a tiny population) said "no" to
human rights as a cross-cutting issue and it was DEAD. Under these
Chatham House Rules none of us can say what single country blocked the topic of
human rights from making it onto the IGF agenda.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><font size=3 face="Times New Roman"><span style='font-size:
12.0pt'>The next year, I tried again to get human rights as a main
theme/cross-cutting issue. But due to the slowness of the UN in
re-appointing the MAG, the meeting at which this decision was being made was
open and so Chatham Rules did not apply. Again a number of civil society
actors weighed in for human rights to be prominent in the agenda. But
this year a different country, <st1:country-region w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">China</st1:place></st1:country-region>,
objected during this open meeting, so human rights was once again nixed from
the prominent discussion topics. But at least we can say it is because <st1:country-region
w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">China</st1:place></st1:country-region> objected
- there is some trail of accountability. Under <st1:City w:st="on"><st1:place
w:st="on">Chatham</st1:place></st1:City> rules, we can't say which small
country objected the year before, so there will be no accountability for that
government from the people who live there (or the rest of the world).
They don't even know their govt just killed human rights in the agenda
for global governance, and apparently we've agreed to keep this dirty secret.
No. Bad idea.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

doesn't make it secret, it just strips out the names of who said what.
The content still comes out. Other SGs feel that's important to them
being able to participate (pertains mostly to inter-corporate squabbling) and I
don't think we could have gotten a consensus council statement without it.
And that council statement does call for two way info flow with AC/SOs,
which was not in the staff proposal. So less than perfect transparency,
but more than there'd have been otherwise.<o:p></o:p></p>

good except I do not agree that the review groups should operate under Chatham
House Rules on confidentiality. It would certainly be a step backward for
a group that is to assess the openness and transparency of ICANN to operate in
this secret fashion and contrary to ICANN's promises of openness and
transparency. Everything else in the letter looks good however.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
