[governance] REVISION 3 Draft statement to UNSG on bypassing

[Jeanette Hofmann]

Hi again,

I agree with Deidre that we shouldn't use a statement to explain 
matters. Particularly, we shouldn't explain UN procedures including 
timing in a statement to the UNSG. Therefore, I would take only the 
following para from Parminder's text and integrate it, perhaps after 
rewriting it a bit to make it sound polite:

We therefore request that in the interest of an open and transparent 
process, UN Secretary General's report on continuation of the IGF be 
made available to the CSTD's annual session in May 2010, which will help 
the 'UN membership' make an informed and considered decision on this 
matter as per the requirements of the Tunis Agenda.
