Asunto: [WSIS CS-Plenary] TR: WSIS resolution: rolling text 19 July and the
EU proposal on OP 10

 

Dear all, 

 

Please find attached tonight’s draft resolution based on today’s difficult
discussions.

ECOSOC Chair Achani actually had a meeting this morning with coordinators of
regional groups on the steps forward. He proposed on this occasion a
compromise package regarding the number of members (43 members) and the
length of the annual session (5 days, with a review of this practice within
2 years). 

The EU proposed the multi-stakeholder approach should be added into this
package.

 

It should also be noted that the EU proposed a new wording for
multi-stakeholder approach (paragraph 10 b and c) which reflects some of our
concerns regarding the fast track participation procedure for WSIS
accredited CS entities. See attached too.

 

Very few progresses compared with yesterday’s draft. South Africa, speaking
on behalf of G77, is demonstrating a very rigid approach, to which also
answer the western countries, and many discussions highlight the difficult
nature of these discussions. The question of Mandate was discussed a lot,
but we had no time to address the multi-stakeholder approach.

 

All the best, 

 

Philippe
