[WSIS CS-Plenary] URGENT ACTION REQUIRED SUMMIT PASSES

[Tracey Naughton]

In considering the allocation of passes for the Tunis Summit the CSB  
has taken into account:

• Active caucus’s, families and working groups, measured by reports  
from Phase 1;
• Active caucus’s, families and working groups that have emerged in  
Phase 2;
• The numbers of participants in the various groupings.

Passes will be distributed at the Tunis Summit by the Civil Society  
Bureau Secretariat (CSBS).

The following process will be co-ordinated at the CSBS (based at  
CONGO in Geneva).

Passes for High Level Panel

There are 35 passes available and 36 groupings in civil society.  
These are listed below.

The CSB will request a minimum of 36 passes and another two (making  
38) for the HIGH Level Panel to be held at the Tunis Summit.

Each group below will be able to request one pass which will be  
allocated on the basis of registering a request.

If the additional passes are supplied, or if any remain after the  
selection process, they will be reserved for past active caucus’s  
that may re-emerge and emergent caucus’s. Any remaining after this  
will be returned to the Executive Secretariat for allocation to other  
stakeholder groupings.

Action required:
Please register your interest in being allocated a High Level Panel  
pass on the following email, before 12 noon Geneva time on Friday  
30th September, 2005.
