reaction to this concept was that I find it is a good idea
to elaborate more
simple and more precise standards, but I don’t think it will
be a third layer; the
so-called “intermediate standards” can only be the same
layer as the international
general principles since they will be international
agreements, and their use
at the national level will still depend on the willing of
the governments. </span></p>

Dear Tijani,<br>
<br>
Thanks for the clarification. I mostly agree with your views.
However, there may be some use in developing some more practical and
accessible principles for IG from larger accepted international
principles like human rights. Such principles can directly inform
public policies related to the Internet, which in turn can help
shape the development of the Internet as per global public interest,
and not the interests of the most powerful. <br>
<br>
However, the real issue is; how should these Internet principles ,
or principles for Internet related policies, (the so called third
layer) be developed. Should plurilateral bodies of rich countires do
it for the whole world, as OECD and CoE have done recently . Or
should this be done through processes that equally involve all
countries, with greatest possible participation of all stakeholders.
I would expect civil society, and IGC, to take a clear view on this
issue.<br>

The European parliamentarians expressed their support to all

<p class="MsoNormal"><br>
Very interested to know what kind of international standards
they were
referring to that fall in between " general principals such as
the human rights
declaration and the national laws". Can someone throw some
light on the
nuances involved here.<br>
