Bonjour,

Veni a demande lors de la pleniere aue la pleniere de la SC de remercier officiellement le secretatariat executif. Il n' a pas obtenu l'assentiment des participants sur ce point. deux personnes, dont J-L Fullsack pour CSDPTT et moi au nom du collectif SMSI avons refuse cettte proposition. Personne ne l'a ouvertement soutenue a part lui et Wolfgang K.

Malgre cela il, revient a la charge sur cette liste pour faire a nouveau passer cette propostion. 

Cet acharnement au motif que ce refus resulterait uniquement des conditions lamentables d'organisation de la derniere pleniere. Ce qui est faux. 

Comme cela a deja ete dit, c'est la facon dont la SC est traite pendant tout ce Sommet de Geneve qui est lamentable et pas seulement en raion des modalites scandaleuses de designation des speackers pour la pleniere gouvernementale.

Dans ces conditions il est bien evidemment HORS DE QUESTION de remercier officiellement le secretariat executif. 

J'avoue d'aileurs ne pas comprendre un tel acharnement consiStant a vouloir rediscuter une proposition qui a deja ete tres clairement rejetee.

Il va de soi en revanche aue Bill Mciver, Sally, Kearen et tout le comite contenu et theme doit etre remercie pour son travail remarquable durant ce Sommet.

Pascal Fortin (COLLECTIF smsi)
