 Dates are suggested to assist planning by Members, Acceding Governments and the Secretariat. However, 

listed meetings are not automatic and will only go ahead on the basis of inputs from Acceding Governments, received 

with sufficient time for review by Members, normally a period of at least four weeks. 

Scheduling and confirmation of meetings also take account of the distribution of meetings in any particular 

period, and hence, the capacity of Members and the Secretariat alike to cope.

Looking at this again, I was off on the date...but... it sometime in Sept without a Date specified....but it should be SOON...  3rd working meeting...

[waterman13]

Yeah, Sept 5 and 6 is a holiday

IRAQ's 3rd working party meeting is in the 3rd quarter, which I would assume (we all know how that's spelled) would be before the General Council and the Global Seminar on Ascensions on October 8 - 11, 2013.

We shall see what happens I guess.
