<blockquote>In recognition that the WHOIS landscape will be changing, perhaps radically, over the coming months as ICANN addresses how it will respond to the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), the review team may choose to defer some or all of its work in relation to the scope items on Law Enforcement Needs, Consumer Trust and Safeguarding Registrant Data until it is more clear what path ICANN will be following. Should any work be deferred, individual timelines may slip. However, it is the intent of the review team that the overall schedule calling for the final report to be delivered by the end of December 2018 not change appreciably.<ref name="tor" /></blockquote>

==Scope of Review==
 +
In November 2016, the chairs of ICANN's supporting organizations and advisory committees proposed a narrowed scope of review for RDS2, given the crowded and uncertain field of work being conducted at the same time.<ref name="scope">[https://community.icann.org/download/attachments/64948923/Proposal%20for%20a%20Limited%20Scope%20of%20the%20RDS%20-%20v4-4-11-16.pdf Proposal for a Limited Scope of the RDS], November 4, 2016</ref>. The proposal suggested a narrow focus on review of implementation of [[First Registration Directory Service Review|RDS1]] recommendations.<ref name="scope" /> The proposal was summarized in a memo prepared for the review team in February 2017. SO and AC commentary on the proposal was included.<ref>[https://community.icann.org/download/attachments/64948923/RDS%20Review%20Scope%20Guidance_17Feb2017link.pdf RDS Review - Guidance for Determining the Scope of the Review], February 8, 2017</ref>

After deliberation among the review team regarding the possibility of a narrowed scope of review, the team decided that it should engage topic areas beyond simply reviewing the progress made on RDS1 implementation:

<blockquote>After much discussion the RDS-WHOIS2 Review Team decided that it would review all of the Bylaw mandated areas, except the OECD Guidelines, as they were under consideration by the Next-Generation gTLD RDS PDP and were judged to be less relevant, particularly in relation to the GDPR. In addition, the RDS-WHOIS2 Review Team included in its scope a review of new policy adopted by ICANN since the WHOIS1 Review Team published its report, and decided to perform a substantive review of Contractual Compliance with the intent of (a) assessing the effectiveness and transparency of ICANN enforcement of existing policy relating to RDS (WHOIS) through ICANN Contractual Compliance actions, structure and processes, including consistency of enforcement actions and availability of related data, (b) identifying high-priority procedural or data gaps (if any), and (c) recommending specific measurable steps (if any) the team believes are important to fill gaps.<ref name="draftreport">[https://www.icann.org/en/system/files/files/draft-rds-whois2-review-31aug18-en.pdf RDS2 Draft Report], August 31, 2018</ref>
