TRANSFER OF IP ADDRESS BLOCK FROM DOMAINZ TO INTERNETNZ

The Executive Director briefed the Council on the issues surrounding the IP address transfers issue, which had been resolved by the parties authorised to so do on Monday September 2 (see reference in Section 14 of August 30 Minutes). Copies of the letters and a briefing paper had previously been circulated. Subsequently the Chair of the Domainz Board refused authorisation for the CEO of Domainz to sign the APNIC letter.

The President outlined the concerns expressed by the Chair of the Domainz Board, and their preference that the IP blocks be split prior to the transfer.

The Secretary declared his interest as a NZDNR Board member and Cr Whittle his as a new Domainz Board member.

Extensive discussion took place, and the Council concluded that the risks to all parties were minimised by endorsing the agreement reached on Monday. On that basis Council Resolved:
