1. New Secretariat "Endorsement"

AdCom accepted the ccTLD Permanent Secretariat proposal submitted by B.K. Kim under the name of the AP Joint Secretariat. The terms of reference of the ccTLD permanent secretariat is to be further discussed in the mailing list and finalized at Stockholm meeting.

It was agreed that the ccTLD Constituency should have its own Bylaw , which would incorporate the final terms of reference, provide for its method of governance by the members, and to provide a clear set of policy and procedures for the secretariat to follow in its operations.

The new secretariat headed by B. K. Kim is to take the responsibility as of 4 May 2001. There will be a transition period of one week.

AdCom would like to take this opportunity to gratefully thank the Interim Secretariat for its services to the constituency over these past 10 months. The AdCom was confident that ccTLD issues were able to be better presented and discussed as a result of the quality service provided at meetings and between, and that an excellent platform has been laid for future growth.
