structure, membership and mission of CSCG, <br>and whether this
structure is the best way to ensure that civil society <br>representation
is representative (including geographically, politically, <br>and in respect of
gender balance)<br>2. To consider in this examination whether
a structure capable of <br>receiving and administering funds to assist with
civil society <br>representatives attendance and travel should also be
established<br>3. To consider workload and whether it is in
civil society’s best <br>interest to rotate nomcom membership rather than
continuance of one <br>representative group making all
decisions<br>4. To examine current selection procedures to see
whether improvements <br>should be made<br>5. To report back
