VENUE FOR IPF-3

The Secretariat reported on possible dates and venues for IPF-3. She said that New York was a possibility at no added cost; Geneva was available but there may be financial implications; Nairobi extended an invitation, but added costs would be significant due to the need to provide translators; and Rome was available at no added cost.

COLOMBIA suggested that a contact group be formed to resolve the issue. The US noted that the proposed dates conflict with the 9th session of the CCD; in order to avoid overlap it may be better to avoid New York and opt for Geneva or Rome.
