Of course, it is critical Internet resources - to use a generic term for 
functions undertaken by ICANN and its associated bodies.

The current IANA contract also says that ICANN should ensure global 
public interest.  This may at times need to be drawn from processes 
other than the PDPs that you mention. In any case, ensuring that ICANN's 
own processes have been adhered to has to be an external function.

These parametres may still need to checked for adherence to global 
public policies, that are developed outside ICANN's PDP processes.
