As you can see the group will have about 40 members from all stakeholders group. What I have heard so far is that governments, and in particular G 77, has agreed under the conditions that they will get 50 per cent of the seats, that is about 20. This means that we will have 10 each for PS and  CS. They have to include also the technical and academic community. There is a special reference to this group in the announcement.
