==Overview==
Established in 1999, the Address Supporting Organization is composed of an Address Council (AC), with representatives from each of the five autonomous [[Regional Internet Registries|RIRs]]:<ref>[https://www.apnic.net/community/participate/elections/nro-elections/about-the-nro APNIC About]</ref>  
+
Established in 1999, the ASO is one of three [[Supporting Organizations]] (SOs) called for in the [[ICANN Bylaws]]. It brought ICANN into the policymaking over global address space issues already underway among the Internet registries of Asia/Pacific, North America, and Europe.<ref>[https://aso.icann.org/about/history/ ASO History]</ref> The ASO oversees IP address policy development with the help of the Number Resource Organization ([[NRO]]). While they are closely linked, the ASO and the NRO have different responsibilities.
 +
The NRO was established in 2003 to coordinate the world’s Regional Internet Registries ([[RIR]]s).
 +
The RIRs manage the distribution of Internet number resources (IP address space and Autonomous System Numbers) within their respective regions. There are five autonomous RIRs:
 
* [[AFRINIC]]  
 
* [[AFRINIC]]  
 
* [[APNIC]]  
 
* [[APNIC]]

* [[LACNIC]]

* [[RIPE NCC]]

Three representatives are appointed from each RIR, which have their own independent election processes.<ref>[http://aso.icann.org/people/address-council/address-council-members/ ASO.ICANN.org]</ref> The Council then elects a chair who appoints the vice-chairs.
+
Each of the RIRs independently elects 3 volunteers to form the 15-member NRO Number Council (NC), which also serves as the ASO Address Council within the ICANN structure.<ref>[https://aso.icann.org/about/aso-and-nro/ ASO and NRO]</ref>
