[WSIS CS-Plenary] Subcommitee A: Summary, Sept 28 (Wed)

[Jérémy Shtern]

Hello, 

The morning meeting of subcommitee A was very short (just over an hour) and
relatively uneventful. They checked in with the cordinators of each drafting
group to see which language was agreed upon by all ('clean text' in UN speak)
and which language was still not yet agreed upon (square bracketed text). After
that the chair ajorned the morning meeting so that drafting groups could get
back to work. There will be an evening meeting of full subcommitee A from 6-9pm
to re-review the work of the drafting groups and to finish the prelimanary
discussion of sections 3A and 5 of the chair's text (follow-up, forum function
and oversight function).

The one notable event this morning was the chair of Subcommitee A requesting New
Zeeland to mediate the drafting group chaired by Ghana because the main
conflict over language in that section of the text involves a proposal made by
Ghana and the African group and the original text.

More to come after this evenings session.
