also see that Farzaneh suggetsing to send it by 30th September, I am

gratified to hear that the IANA transition will not be blocked by the U.S.
Congress. We congratulate the board and the entire multistakeholder
community on this news. Now that the contract with NTIA is sure to expire
on September 30, the NCUC EC asks that the ICANN board immediately file and
execute any and all procedures needed to implement the new bylaws, which
put into place critical accountability reforms. We see quick action on this
matter as a confidence-building measure and a signal of good faith to the
global stakeholder community. We see delay any in taking those steps as
raising risks to the successful completion of the transition. We hope the
board and ICANN’s legal staff share these concerns and act accordingly.
