<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span lang=EN-GB style='font-size:

WSIS issue, this meeting is not part of UNCTAD follow up to WSIS. Therefore,
only NGOs in consultative status with UNCTAD might be able to participate... We
were however informed that other relevant CS representatives could ask for an
ad hoc “invitation” to the division organising the event, so that
they could be put in the list of participants as invited persons. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
