Dear ccTLD Community,

Apologies for cross-posting.

I am writing to you on behalf of Nick Wenban-Smith, ccNSO Rejection
Action Process Manager, to inform you that on 12 May 2021, the ICANN
Board of Directors approved the FY22-26 Five Year Operating and
Financial Plan (see
https://www.icann.org/resources/board-material/resolutions-2021-05-12-en#2.a
[1] ). The approved 5 Year Plan can be viewed at:

On 21 May 2021, the ccNSO as a Decisional Participant received a notice
from the ICANN Secretary pursuant to Section 22.5(a)(v) of the ICANN
Bylaws.

The approved FY 22-26 Five Year Operating and Financial Plan is subject
to Rejection Action Petitions from the community.

If you are interested in submitting a Rejection Action Petition to the
ccNSO Council, with respect to the approved FY22-26 Five Year Operating
Plan, please consult Section 2 of Annex D for the requirements, which
must be met
(https://www.icann.org/resources/pages/governance/bylaws-en/#annexD [3]
).

Please be advised that per Annex D Section 2.2(a)(i)(A) the Rejection
Action Petition must be:

“…based on one or more significant issues that were specifically
raised in the applicable public comment period(s) relating to perceived
inconsistencies with the Mission, purpose and role set forth in ICANN's
Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws, the global public interest, the
needs of ICANN's stakeholders, financial stability, or other matter of
concern to the community.”
