| '''SIC''' is the abbreviation for '''Structural Improvements Committee'''. It was established at the [[ICANN Cairo|Cairo]] meeting in November, 2008. SIC is responsible for reviewing policies and providing oversight, as part of [[ICANN]]'s ongoing organizational review process. SIC conducts the reviews as per the bylaws of ICANN and uses the reviews to evaluate whether any given committee, organization, etc has a persistent purpose within the structure of the ICANN. SIC also provides recommendations from time to time with the sole objective of enhancing the effectiveness of the structure. The SIC consults the Advisory Committee, Supporting Organizations and the Nominating Committee with respect to the various reviewing aspects of any such organization associated with ICANN.<ref>[http://syd.icann.org/files/meetings/sydney2009/presentation-bsic-26jun09-en.pdf syd.icann.org]</ref><ref>[http://www.icann.org/en/committees/improvements/charter.htm icann.org]</ref>
