Based upon the practice used in advance of previous Meetings of the States Parties, a draft agenda, draft rules of procedure and draft cost estimates for the Fifth Meeting of the States Parties were presented to the Standing Committee on the General Status and Operation of the Convention on 7 February 2003. It was the sense of the Co-Chairs that these documents could be put before States Parties for their acceptance at the Fifth Meeting. In addition, on 16 May 2003, the Co-Chairs presented to the Standing Committee a revised draft programme for the Fifth Meeting. It was the sense of the Co-Chairs that this document too could be put before States Parties for their acceptance at the Fifth Meeting. |
