The Conference also held 6 informal plenary meetings on its agenda, programme of work, organization and procedures, as well as on other matters.

It will be followed by an informal plenary meeting on the Conference's agenda and other issues related to its work, and I will have the full day available for you at that time.

It is a fact, though, that due to last minute and inevitable time constraints, the Conference ended up with only one short session devoted to development.

Therefore I would like to propose that next week, unless there are views to the contrary, the Conference should hold only one plenary meeting, on Tuesday, 6 September.

During this period, the Conference held 29 formal plenary meetings, at which Member States as well as non Member States invited to participate in the discussions outlined their views and recommendations on the various questions before the Conference.

First, I would like to invite the Conference to take a decision on the request from Panama, a non member State of the Conference, to participate in our work, without first having considered it in an informal plenary.

We welcome the intention of the organizers of the World Conference on Disaster Reduction, which opened today in Kobe, Japan, to propose a special session on the issue at the Conference.

A joint session or joint convention is, most broadly, when two normally separate decision making groups meet together, often in a special session or other extraordinary meeting, for a specific purpose.

Unless the Conference decides otherwise, no substantive proposals shall be discussed or put to the vote at any meeting of the Conference, unless copies of them have been circulated to all delegations not later than the day preceding the meeting.
