[governance] REVISION 4 Draft statement to UNSG on bypassing CSTD

[Sivasubramanian Muthusamy]

How many Civil Society statements are drafted and sent to the Secretary
General on this issue?  Why are we so worried about the length of the
statement when it is not verbose by any standards and when there aren't too
many statements from Civil Society on this issue? The IGC is making this
statement on behalf of most of its several CS members, so it is ok if the
statement is long enough to include the facts, arguments and express all our
concerns.

Brevity without sufficient reason is unnecessary and would leave so much
unsaid.
