Reimbursement of ALAC Expenses

Whereas, in resolution 03.07 the Board appointed the Interim At-Large 
Advisory Committee to serve, under Article XX, Section 7(5)(a) of the New 
Bylaws, until such time as ICANN recognizes, through the entry of a 
Memorandum of Understanding, the Regional At-Large Organizations (RALOs) 
identified in Article XI, Section 2(4) of the New Bylaws;

Whereas, the Interim At-Large Advisory Committee has requested funding of 
expenses for its members to travel to and from and to attend the ICANN 
meetings in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, in late-March 2003;

Whereas, the President has reviewed the request and recommends that he be 
authorized to expend, from the 2002-2003 ICANN budget, up to US$33,000 to 
cover expenses of the Interim At-Large Advisory Committee members for travel 
to and from and attendance at the Rio de Janeiro meeting;

Whereas, the Finance Committee has stated that the necessary funds are 
available and recommended that these meeting expenses be funded;

Whereas, while of the view that the At-Large Advisory Committee and its 
related structures and organizations need to evolve to become financially 
self-sufficient, the Executive Committee concludes that providing this 
funding during the At-Large Advisory Committee's start-up period would be 
beneficial to the establishment of an At-Large Advisory Committee that 
effectively fosters informed participation in ICANN by individual Internet 
users;

Resolved [EC03.3] that the President is authorized to expend, from the 
2002-2003 ICANN budget, up to US$33,000 to cover expenses of the Interim 
At-Large Advisory Committee members for travel to and attendance at the Rio 
de Janeiro meeting in late-March 2003.
