* On September 12, 2021, the Board directed the [[ICANN CEO]] to organize the resources required to begin work on the [[ODP]] for the SupPro and advise the Board when the work of the ODP begins. The Board requested regular updates on the progress and the delivery of an Operational Design Assessment (ODA) (the output of the ODP), within '''ten months''' of the date of initiation. The Board also authorized Goran Marby up to US$9 million to fund the ODP, and its requisite community engagement, formation and delivery of an ODA to the Board, and any additional work required to support the ICANN Board's consideration of the SubPro final report.<ref>[https://www.icann.org/en/system/files/files/presentation-new-gtld-subsequent-procedures-odp-webinar-28sep21-en.pdf SubPro Webinar, ICANN Sept 2021]</ref> | |||
