I just came to Room XVI where governments are now negotiating
as drafting group on "3. Public Policy Issues" with Saudi Arabia
who proposed the new strucutre charing the session.

Noone questioned the presense of non-governmental people
thus there are more than 10 such people I can see in the room.

Here follows is my rough memo of ongoing debate.


Discussing the order and flow of 45   51...

US

South Africa
Sequence   support Saudi proposal
Legitimacy -  support Uganda proposal to include “legitimacy” 
soverign right of states and their involvement
Issues of stakeholder participation
