[WSIS CS-Plenary] Re: [CS Bureau] Evaluation and documentation of CS in WSIS

[Robert Guerra]

Tracey:


I consider the CS Bureau of WSIS to have dissolved when WSIS was  
concluded.  The CSB paralleled the Intergovernmental Bureau, and that  
body ceased to be at the summit proper in November. Should the CSB  
wish to continue, then that mandate needs to come not from the CSB -  
but from Civil society groups that it is serving.

It is my strong belief that that discussion is long overdue and  
should take place ASAP.


regards,

Robert
