Dear all<br>
<br>
For my part, personally and pending responses from IRP Coalition
members who can provide their input too here, I welcome this
suggestion. <br>
<br>
The MAG needs to be supported, redeemed, and provided with new
"juice". <br>
<br>
If a viable alternative presents itself then let's hear it but in
the meantime for the coming year an open nomination process across
these groups identifying as civil society for new MAG members
strikes me as a constructive way forward. <br>
<br>
best<br>
M<br>

Some Questions: <br>
1. How easy is it for the consolidated CS to reach a
consensus? <br>

<div>[Sala: This is a very good question. The reality is
that no civil society organisation can purport to
represent the views of all civil society. However the
critical thing to note is that in this instance this is
not asking for consensus of views on substantive policy
matters but are more to do with administrative matters
pertaining to selection of civil society representatives.
I am not sure how open they will feel about consensus
amongst civil society organisations on fielding names for
committees such as the MAG etc. But it's worth a shot. ]<br>

</blockquote>
<div>[Sala: They clearly don't and would be governed by
their respective articles or objectives as we are governed
by the Charter, However, because we share more common
features than other stakeholder groups, it makes sense to
have cohesive collaborative framework for things like:-<br>
<br>
</div>
<div>1) MS Selection processes;<br>
</div>
<div>2)Joint Initiatives - Advocacy on mutual issues and
priority areas<br>

<div> Dear IGC, Best bits, APC, Diplo,
Internet Rights and Principles Coalition,</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>
I am not subscribed to other lists so have
opted to list the coordinators of these
lists instead. In light of the MAG renewal
and selections, I would like to invite you
to consider whether the idea for a joint
NomCom where civil society can channel
selections in a consolidated form.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>There should also be a consolidated
framework of expected standards of
behaviour and deliverables for MAG civil
society representatives and in matters of
accountability to the civil society at
large. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>If it is too late to consider this for
this round, it is still something that
collectively civil society can communicate
to UNDESA if there is consensus for this.
This will ensure no "gaming" of systems
and will demand accountability and
encourage an open and transparent
process. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>For the Business community, they are in
consensus that the ICC is to facilitate
the process. Whilst for civil society
there is no consensus on a any single body
to represent the selection process, I feel
that it is something that should at least
be discussed. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Kind Regards,</div>
