Background
• NIRs originally established under APNIC “confederation” structure – CNNIC, JPNIC, KRNIC, TWNIC, APJII (ID) – New NIRs suspended in 1998 due to need for
development and alignment of policies
• NIR status today– Close liaison between APNIC and NIRs– NIR meetings now open and well established– Staff exchange and other cooperation– Policies and operations now functioning well

Principles
• NIRs serve community of users within “national” boundary– Defined by ISO-3166 system– Only one NIR may exist per ISO code
• Candidate NIR should be selected by its national constituency– However APNIC EC is responsible for recognition
• NIRs operate within APNIC policy framework– Must implement global and regional policies– But may implement local procedures
• ISPs should have choice of registry– NIR always recognised as “first choice”– APNIC and NIR to cooperate fully to support ISP choice
• NIR is a member of APNIC

Endorsement and Recognition
• NIR candidate should be nominated or endorsed by national Government– APNIC cannot intervene in national
affairs– Government will be influenced by
consensus support and other factors
• NIR recognition is APNIC EC responsibility– As representatives of APNIC Members– In accordance with this document

Organisational Model
• Non-profit structure• Neutrality
– NIR must hold a neutral position– NIR should not be an ISP– Able to apply policies objectively
• Funding– Stable funding model and funding base
• Capacity– To implement policies and to operate reliably– Sufficient technical and staff capacity

Resource Policies
• NIRs must comply with Asia Pacific policies for resource management– Substantive policy changes must come
to APNIC Open Policy Meeting– Must apply policies objectively and with
neutrality at all times
• Procedures may be adapted to local conditions– Language, technology etc

Recognition
• APNIC EC is responsible for recognition– Secretariat to implement application process
• Withdrawal of recognition– EC responsibility– Based on national request, or serious problems
• Change of recognised NIR– New NIR application is submitted, after
recognition of existing NIR withdrawn by request
• Dispute resolution– Existing mechanisms may be used– Defined in APNIC Bylaws

Next steps
• Seek consensus at APNIC Member Meeting
• Finalise NIR Criteria Policy Document– Incorporating any amendments– Integrate with Operational Policy document?
• Secretariat to implement application process– Within 3 months of consensus
• NIR new applications to be accepted– After implementation is complete– Application timelines tbd
