Origin - 2014 - Second part-session

In the draft resolution, at the end of paragraph 5, add the following sentences:

"The tasks of allocating domain names and email addresses will be transferred to a body that is either newly established or derived from existing structures. This body will comply with the requirements of the future international Internet charter. A world observatory mission will be given the task of analysing the operation, issuing recommendations, recommending standards and labels, allowing users to control and determine the location of their data, and stipulating the penalties which may be imposed by a legal authority established at international level in the event of non-compliance with the charter."

Explanatory note

Paragraph 5 recognises that the Internet has evolved and asks that all stakeholders participate in the process without delineating this new governance.
