<FONT FACE="Arial"><SPAN STYLE='font-size:11pt'>Thanks to everyone who put their name forward for this. After some discussions with the Secretariat and some strong hints from them as to the sorts of nominations that would be preferable, we have forwarded the following final list. Please note that the people on this list are not definitely speaking and in some slots we may have one speaker only. I believe decisions will be made in the next few days and there may be changes.<BR>

PS – on a personal note, I would hope that each of our speakers takes the opportunity to raise our concerns about rights issues being marginalised. I’m sure there are many ways this can be built into each session with a degree of politeness, and it is important I believe that we stress issues like this and not less these sessions and our contributions become just meaningless repetitive platitudes. <BR>
