The key phrase here is "international industry self-regulation"...

Also, the board members are required to act in a personal capacity, not as
organisation representatives. See Article V, Section 8 of
http://www.iana.org/submitted/sub-bylaws.html

    Section 8. DUTIES OF DIRECTORS

    Directors shall serve as individuals who have the duty
    to act in what they reasonably believe are the best
    interests of the Corporation and not as representatives
    of their Supporting Organizations, employers or any other
    organizations or constituencies.
