Re: Scenario for IDB Luncheon, October 7

I understand that you will be leaving the meeting at noon for the White House and will go directly from there to the IDB luncheon at 1:00.

12:45 Commissioners depart State Department by minibus.

12:55 Arrive IDB. We will be met in the lobby and escorted to the second floor dining room. When you arrive, you will also be escorted to the second floor. IDB President Ortiz Mena will greet you there and introduce you to the approximately 15 bank officials who will join in the lunch. There will be no receiving line.

1:00 - 1:15 Cocktails in the dining area.

1:15 - 2:15 Lunch. You will be seated at the head of the table along with Ortiz Mena, IDB Executive Vice President Michael Curtin, U.S. Director Jose Manuel Casanova, and me.

After the main course, Ortiz Mena will give about five minutes of greeting and general remarks. You may then make a few opening remarks and pose the first questions, then turn the floor over to other Commissioners for questions. Questions should be directed to Ortiz Mena, who will farm them out to other officials as appropriate.

2:15 Depart IDB for State Department.
