Re: [gnso-dow123] Agenda for Tomorrow

[Thomas Keller <tom@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Maria,

I noticed that the part regarding the Issue Report of TF2, unlike the
parts for the other TFs, does not include the constituency statements
which were needed to form the Issue Report but only the constituency
statements in regard to Recommendation 1 of the combined TF 1+2.

Could you please include them as well.

Thanks,

tom
