[council] ICANN reimbourse $75,000 to GAC for GAC Secretariat

[Elisabeth Porteneuve <Elisabeth.Porteneuve@cetp.ipsl.fr>]

ICANN reimbourse $75,000 to GAC for 4 month and half
of GAC Secretariat (after Bucharest to 15 November 2002):

http://www.icann.org/minutes/prelim-report-13aug02.htm

Resolved [EC02.8] that the President is authorized to provide
reimbursement to the Australian Government for its actual costs
of providing chair and secretariat services to the GAC, in a total
amount not to exceed US$75,000, for the period ending 15 November 2002,
after which alternative arrangements by the GAC to provide these
functions can be implemented.

Deux poids deux mesures ?

While the DNSO Constituencies provide 90% of the whole ICANN
budget, circa 5 million USD, the DNSO have been asking ICANN Board
to provide $100,000 per annum for the DNSO Secretariat.
The DNSO function of developping policy for gTLD space is
the main reason for which ICANN has been created under the MoU
with the USG.
