NTIA SEEKS PUBLIC COMMENTS REGARDING JOINT PROJECT AGREEMENT WITH ICANN
[SOURCE: National Telecommunications and Information Administration]
The National Telecommunications and Information Administration (NTIA) announced that it will consult with interested stakeholders regarding the mid-term review of the Joint Project Agreement (JPA) between the Department and the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN). NTIA will soon release a Notice of Inquiry (NOI) requesting comments to be due February 15, 2008. NTIA and ICANN signed the JPA on September 29, 2006. The JPA has a three-year term and provides for the Department to conduct a mid-term review of the agreement. The Department will consult with interested stakeholders to assist in conducting this mid-term review of ICANN’s progress in meeting the responsibilities outlined in the JPA and by ICANN’s Board.
