The agenda of the next meeting of the CSTD WG has just been released. It is scheduled for 25 and 26 Feb, back to back with the Open consultations (23 and 24 Feb).<br><br>A draft structure of the report has also been proposed (all docs attached). There are seven substantive questions (II to VIII). Probably separate e-mails threads for the debate of each question will be necessary. Suggestions on how to proceed?<br>
