To Bureau members,

As facilitators of the CS, this group is expected to discuss 
what civil society can do during the intersessional meeting 
in Paris in July before PrepCom III in Sept.

I think this can be CSB's timeline before PrepCom III. 
This has not intentionally considered Contents Group activity 
in this timeframe.

April. 15 - April 30: 
To circulate the updated CSB's terms of reference(ToR) to the 
bureau list for comments from other members. This work has 
been done by Viola and Alein. In line with this discussion, it is 
expected this group as a whole re-open the questions which 
were not answered in the PrepCom II due to time pressure. 
The criteria of the family. Currently, there are 23 families 
overlapping with other existing structures and representation. 
Each family focal point is expected to make a status report to 
the bureau secretariat in facilitating this discussion. 

May 1 - May 15: 
To circulate the draft updated CSB's ToR to each family list to 
gather responses from the family members.

May 16 - May 31: 
To finalize the CSB's ToR based on the comments from family 
members and finalize detailed family structure.

June 1 - June 15: 
Review on the CSB task forces and their activities. 
Focal points of each family update to family members on CSB 
task force activities and encourage the family members to 
participate in the task forces. 

June 16 - June 30: 
[your inputs expected.] Paris meeting preparation

July 1 - July 15:
[your inputs expected.] Paris meeting preparation

July 16 - July 23: 
[your inputs expected.] Paris meeting preparation

As mentioned several times, this structure was set up as an 
interim to respond to the Governmental Bureau in a timely 
manner in Geneve. Therefore, as promised, each family is 
expected to outreach to the relevant communites and draft 
its charter and finalize it. Based on the recognized charter 
among the family members, each family conducts the election 
to select their focal points.

I am looking forward to working with you to enhance CSB's 
function and legitimacy as proposed in its draft.
YJ
