INPUT FROM ICANN ..

Stewardship of IANA Functions Transitions to Global Internet Community as
Contract with U.S. Government Ends

1 October 2016

Today, 1 October 2016, the contract between the Internet Corporation for
Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN) and the United States Department of
Commerce National Telecommunications and Information Administration (NTIA),
to perform the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA) functions, has
officially expired
<http://www.ntia.doc.gov/press-release/2016/statement-assistant-secretary-strickling-iana-functions-contract>.
This historic moment marks the transition of the coordination and
management of the Internet’s unique identifiers to the private-sector, a
process that has been committed to and underway since 1998.

“This transition was envisioned 18 years ago, yet it was the tireless work
of the global Internet community, which drafted the final proposal, that
made this a reality,” said ICANN Board Chair Stephen D. Crocker. “This
community validated the multistakeholder model of Internet governance. It
has shown that a governance model defined by the inclusion of all voices,
including business, academics, technical experts, civil society,
governments and many others is the best way to assure that the Internet of
tomorrow remains as free, open and accessible as the Internet of today.”

Internet users will see no change or difference in their experience online
as a result of the stewardship transition.

In managing the coordination of the Internet’s unique identifiers, ICANN
plays a small but significant role in the Internet’s ecosystem. For more
than 15 years, ICANN has worked in concert with other technical bodies such
as the Internet Engineering Task Force, the Regional Internet Registries,
top-level domain registries and registrars, and many others.

The final chapter of the privatization process began in 2014, when NTIA
asked ICANN to convene the global multistakeholder community, which is made
up of private-sector representatives, technical experts, academics, civil
society, governments and individual Internet end users, to come together
and formulate proposals to both replace NTIA’s historic stewardship role
and enhance ICANN’s accountability mechanisms.

The package of proposals developed by the global community met the strict
criteria
<http://www.ntia.doc.gov/press-release/2016/iana-stewardship-transition-proposal-meets-criteria-complete-privatization>
established
by NTIA in its March 2014 announcement. Since their submission to NTIA,
ICANN and its various stakeholder groups have worked tirelessly to ensure
that all the necessary implementation tasks
<https://www.icann.org/news/announcement-3-2016-08-12-en> have been
completed, so the IANA functions contract could expire on 30 September 2016.

The proposals reinforce ICANN’s existing multistakeholder model and are
also aimed at enhancing ICANN’s accountability. The improvements include
empowering the global Internet community to have direct recourse if they
disagree with decisions made by ICANN the organization or the Board.

The IANA stewardship transition is a testament to the tireless work of the
global community, and a validation of the multistakeholder model that
frames that community.
