== ICANN's Response ==

In response to the May 2017 decision by the European Union, ICANN CEO, [[Göran Marby]] along with [[Akram Atallah]] formed an internal task force devoted to the matter. The task force is comprised of senior leaders and experts focused on parallel tracks: contracted parties and engagement, and the <abbr>ICANN</abbr> organization. The task force will determine how the legislation fits under ICANN's purview, as well as working with registries and registrars to problem-solve and reexamine how the legislation impacts them. This work will take place as part of the multistakeholder process and will be discussed more in depth at [[ICANN59]] in Johannesburg, South Africa.
