===2009 Systematization Paper===
In May 2009, the Board approved the posting of a [[Organizational Effectiveness Committee|Structural Improvements Committee]] paper, "Proposals for the Systematization of ICANN’s Organizational Review Processes," for public comment.<ref>[https://www.icann.org/resources/board-material/minutes-2009-05-21-en Resolution (2009.11) of the Board], May 21, 2009</ref> As implied by the title, the paper<ref name="syspaper">[https://www.icann.org/en/committees/improvements/proposals-systematization-of-or-processes-apr09.pdf "Proposals for the Systematization of ICANN's Organizational Review Processes,"], April 2009</ref> largely focused on the administrative processes currently in place for each organizational review phase, and identified opportunities to streamline the decision making and production processes for each phase. The paper received two public comments, from the ALAC and from [[Michael Palage]].<ref name="syspc">[https://forum.icann.org/lists/review-processes/pdfu0vl76VAfW.pdf Staff Report on Public Comment Proceeding], October 1, 2009</ref> Palage and the ALAC both noted that the streamlining of decision flowcharts only improved the current review process, and did not focus on finding a "holistic approach" to organizational reviews.<ref name="syspc" /> In September 2009, the ICANN Board approved an amendment to the Bylaws proposed by Michael Palage, that organizational reviews "shall be conducted no less frequently than every five years."<ref>[https://www.icann.org/resources/board-material/prelim-report-2009-09-30-en Preliminary Report of Board Meeting], September 30, 2009</ref>
