Bureau<BR><BR>We have to get back to work. !!!<BR><BR>1/ So far, concerning invitation letters that many of<BR>us need to have to be able attend the cluster Week.<BR>either for Visa, travel application and funding.<BR>The invitations letters are available only for<BR>Action Line C5 Facilitation Meeting ( 14-15 May 2007<BR>action lines C2, C4, and C6 ( 16 May 2007<BR>Informal consultation between ITU and CS 18 May 2007<BR>Second consultation meeting of WSIS Action Line Facilitators<BR>25 may 2007<BR>UNESCO has not prepared yet any invitation letter.<BR><BR>Could CONGO as the Bureau executive secretariat inquire<BR>with ECOSOC, or ITU, or UNCTAD ( as the de facto<BR>WSIS executive secretariat ) about the possibility<BR>to make available a global<BR>invitation letter covering the two weeks in Geneva.<BR>This would simplify greatly visa application for<BR>some, and bureaucracy for all of us.<BR><BR>2/ The e-science action line should occur on Monday 14 May.<BR>This is to be
confirmed.<BR>There are long multi-stakeholder negotiations<BR>to find a convenient date when all major stakeholders<BR>could attend.<BR><BR>3/ As I did last year, for the action lines meetings in Paris,<BR>may I act as the Bureau liaison officer with UNESCO ?<BR>to speed up things concerning procedural issues,<BR>eg Letters of invitations, and terms of references.<BR><BR>I have been working closely with the Science4D division<BR>to get updated terms of references,<BR>and Working Methods of the Multi-stakeholders Team<BR>concerning the e-science action line<BR>( not yet on http://www.wsis-si.org/unesco.html,<BR>since I waiting to UNESCO science divsion to have them posted )<BR>These are very important procedural documents,<BR>and it would be good to discuss the procedures concerning<BR>the other action lines. This should a topic of discussion<BR>of a bureau meeting.<BR><BR>Procedural issues are going to quite important in this<BR>cluster week, specifically with ECOSOC,
UNCTAD, UNESCO, ITU<BR>with the new secretary general, to determine the<BR>participation of Civil Society.<BR><BR>4/ It seems that we need to hold a Bureau Meeting in<BR>Geneva in May to discuss about the reform of the Bureau,<BR>or at the very least, fill the vacant seats for<BR>various families in order to stay inclusive.<BR>CONGO need to be confirmed as the executive secretariat<BR>of the WSIS CS Bureau to be able to continue to negotiate<BR>( they are doing a terrific job ) ) procedural issues<BR>for the sake of the whole CS ( not just with ECOSOC ).<BR><BR>5/ We might hold 2 Bureau meetings, one at the beginning<BR>of the cluster week, Monday 14 or Tuesday 15,<BR>to assess the current situation,<BR>and let people start to discuss in Geneva and elsewhere, and one<BR>at the end on Friday 25.<BR><BR>Do we ask families to send short reports as we<BR>did for the CapeTown meeting in order to list the<BR>active familie ?<BR><BR>We should start discussions on all those topics
