THE FIRST SESSION OF THE COUNCIL OF THE GLOBAL ENVIRONMENT FACILITY:

The first session of the Council of the GEF will be held in Washington, DC, from 12-15 July 1994. The agenda for this meeting should include: adoption of the rules of procedure (although interim rules of procedure may be approved while discussion continues on this matter); election of a Chair from among the Members at this meeting; and appointment of the Chief Executive Officer (CEO)/Chairperson of the Facility on the recommendation of the implementing agencies. The Council will also determine the tentative work programme of the GEF Secretariat and the Council and decide on outstanding matters dealing with the constituencies. It is also likely that the question of NGO observer status will be considered.
