When, in accordance with step 1 in the Global Policy Development Process of the ASO MoU (Attachment A, article 1), ICANN staff liaising with the addressing community becomes aware of a global policy development within the scope of the ASO MoU, ICANN staff informs the ICANN Board of this development. The Board decides, as and when appropriate, that this development should be followed by ICANN staff and instructs the ICANN CEO to assign staff for this purpose. ICANN staff so assigned shall inform all ICANN Supporting Organizations and Advisory Committees, shall establish an ICANN web page to be kept up to date and shall compile a background report to be kept up to date on this global policy development. This background report shall be provided to the Board as requested.
•2. Within one business day from the receipt of a proposed global policy forwarded by the ASO Address Council to the ICANN Board, the ICANN Board Secretary shall acknowledge receipt of this to the ASO Address Council and submit the proposed global policy to the Board together with an updated background report. This is the start of the 60-days window for Board response to the ASO Address Council.
