The Working Group's initial report was completed in March 2020. It presented twenty-six recommendations, seventeen questions for the community regarding specific aspects of the new gTLD rights protection mechanisms, and twenty-four proposals submitted by WG members that had not yet risen to the level of consensus recommendations.<ref name="initialrep">[https://community.icann.org/display/RARPMRIAGPWG/RPM+PDP+Phase+1+Initial+Report+for+Public+Comment PDP-RPM Initial Report for Public Comment], March 18, 2020</ref> The WG sought public input on all of those recommendations, questions, and proposals, with an eye toward drafting a final report and recommendations.
The initial report's findings included a number of conflicts between existing rights protection mechanisms and the [[GDPR]].<ref name="initialrep" /> The WG noted, for example, that the procedural rules of the [[Uniform Rapid Suspension System]] (URS) had filing requirements that included information that the provisions within the [[Temporary Specification for gTLD Registration Data]] no longer required. As a result, amendments were proposed regarding the specificity of information necessary to file a complaint.<ref name="initialrep" /> The questions to the community sought public input on the workability of the protection mechanisms and specific input from registry operators regarding their experience receiving and processing complaints and other transactions with complainants or petitioners.<ref name="initialrep" /> The proposals from individual WG members dealt with the URS and the [[Trademark Clearinghouse]], specifically. The report noted that some of the rationales behind the proposals were not necessarily supported by the findings of the WG.<ref name="initialrep" />
Public comments on the initial report were extensive - forty-four comments were received from organizations and twelve people submitted comments in their individual capacity.<ref>[https://www.icann.org/en/system/files/files/report-comments-rpm-initial-report-18may20-en.pdf ICANN.org - Staff Report on Public Comment Proceeding, PDP-RPM Initial Report], May 18, 2020</ref> For ease of analysis, the WG created a matrix of comments received on specific recommendations, questions, and proposals.<ref>[https://community.icann.org/display/RARPMRIAGPWG/Phase+1+Initial+Report+Public+Comment+Review PDP-RPM Workspace - Public Comment Review], last updated July 2020</ref>
