In October, 2012, [[NTIA]] Secretary [[Larry Strickling]] wrote to ICANN in part to commend it on its recent successes and also to encourage it to continue to work on issues in need of further attention or improvement. One of the successes that Sec. Strickling notes is the "significant effort to accomodate the law enforcement recommendations, as endorsed by the [[ICANN]]'s [[Governmental Advisory Committee]] (GAC), in a new Registrar Accreditation Agreement." NTIA participates in ICANN via the [[GAC]].http://www.icann.org/en/news/correspondence/strickling-to-crocker-04oct12-en Strickling to Crocker 04oct12, ICANN.org]</ref>

In January 2014, a European Union data protection body sent a letter to ICANN for the second time, saying that the 2013 RAA violated a number of EU privacy laws. The same body sent ICANN a letter in July of 2013 and ICANN responded by stating that the body did not have legal authority to voice the opinion of the entire EU.<ref>[http://domainincite.com/15680-eu-body-tells-icann-that-2013-raa-really-is-illegal EU Body Tells ICANN that 2013 RAA Really is Illegal, DomainIncite] Retrieved 29 Jan 2014</ref>
