intersessional finished this afternoon with a new draft Declaration and a
report on the meetings on the Plan of Action. Governments met this morning (18
July) on the Plan of Action, receiving general comments on the whole document.
The chair produced a report on the discussion on the plan of action at this
point, including a list of "feasible actions" which some governments have
requested [DT-7]. A new version of the Draft Declaration of Principles was
released in the afternoon [DT-4 (rev.3)]. A new version of the Action Plan
will be released on the web on 23 August. <?/fontfamily><?fontfamily><?param Times New Roman><BR><BR>Civil
