Public Consultation ICP-2
As part of the Regional Internet Registries (RIR) system, the LACNIC community has been invited to be part of the global discussion about the ICP-2 document update.
This process, led by the NRO Numbers Council (NRO NC), seeks to update the principles governing the recognition, operation, and potential derecognition of an RIR, while preserving the foundations of the current system and strengthening its clarity, stability, and capacity for self-governance.
This process included two rounds of public consultation:
1. First round (completed)
This round took place from 14 April to 27 May 2025. Click here to download the first draft. A summary report of the first consultation, prepared by the NRO NC, is also available.
2. Second round (completed) - 28 August to 7 November 2025
We invite the LACNIC community to review the summary report of the second public consultation.

Key Aspects of the Second Consultation Summary Report:
- This report provides an overview of the feedback received from the RIR and ICANN communities during the second public consultation. This includes sessions held at RIR and ICANN events, webinars, and comments submitted via mailing lists.
- The report does not include the NRO NC's opinions or responses to the comments submitted.
Those interested in reading through the community input in detail should refer to the NRO Community Engagement page to find direct links to the consultation mailing lists and session archives of the activities held during the consultation period.

What will happen with the feedback?
All comments will be reviewed by the NRO NC and used to inform the final version of the document. If significant changes are required, an additional round of review may be initiated.
Once it is finalized, the ASO AC will submit the document to the NRO EC, which, together with ICANN, will determine the steps for its formal approval and adoption.
