Abstract
The Executive Committee met by teleconference on February 21 and the Minutes
have been circulated in draft to the Committee. The main agenda matters discussed were:
an update on preliminary work on the 2009-2012 Three-Year Plan, noting the organisation
of the regional meetings of focal points that will seek input from Member States; agreement
that COL management will redraft the Terms of Reference for Board Committees,
incorporating members’ views, for consideration by the Board at its meeting in June; and
a discussion of potential and emerging strategic issues that led to a decision to put the
rotation policy for international staff on the next Board agenda. The Acting Chair
confirmed that the process of selecting a new Chair is under way. The Secretary-General
has written to Heads of Government and Board members inviting them to propose names of
suitable candidates but the process will not be completed before the current SecretaryGeneral
demits office on March 31, so the Secretary-General-elect, H.E. Mr. Kamalesh
Sharma, will bring it to a conclusion
