I am not sure whether in jurisdiction we are discussing pressing issues that can affect NCUC. But for transparency group and DIDP I think it would be good to ask Michael to brief us on that because that affects us.

<div>I am not sure we need to allow a big chunk of our agenda to be composed of generic ICANN staff reports. Anyway put that stuff at the end, I am shocked we don't have the bylaw update higher up in the agenda. I would move admin matters up to #3 and dont
think the business meeting should spend too much time on the details of WS 2. Maybe move that to #3</div>

The EC’s responsibilities are administrative management, in-reach and outreach, and interfacing with ICANN’s staff and community as needed. NCUC Chair has also several duties and roles to fulfill.

IV. Candidate Statements
For the statement, the nominated candidate should answer:
1. Why do you want to serve on the EC?
2. Provide a brief biography of recent experience, associations, and affiliations relevant to serving on the Executive Committee. Describe the relevance of your personal and professional experience to serve on the NCUC Executive Committee, and identify any conflicts of interests you might have.
3. The EC performs several functional responsibilities for the Constituency. What level of time commitment can you bring to your EC role on a weekly and overall basis? Describe any concerns or limitations on your ability to attend online meetings of the Executive Committee and ICANN Meetings in person.
4. Communication with the membership is critical. How would you keep members apprised of your EC-related activities?
5. How do you foresee NCUC’s function, scale, or role changing in the future? What areas of ICANN policy, if any, need more attention and why?
Incumbent candidates should answer in a manner that is both backward and forward looking, i.e. taking note of their contributions and work in the previous year.
The statements should be relatively concise, e.g. a couple paragraphs per question.
V. "Meet the Candidates” confcall</font></pre>
<pre style="white-space:pre-wrap;color:rgb(0,0,0)"><font face="arial, helvetica, sans-serif">In the week prior to the voting period, we will organize a confcall for the membership to ask candidates. The date/time will be decided and shared during that week.</font></pre>
