The nature of the Convention means that it is difficult for the Praesidium to programme its work very far ahead with any degree of certainty (whether a specific issue addressed in a Convention paper, or by a Working Group, or raised by a Praesidium proposal, will need extended plenary debate depends on the Convention’s reaction to it).
