Thank you, Colin.

I have a query which I hope you or someone else might be able to help 
with.  The report describes itself as a "working paper".  Can you clarify 
what this means?  - Was the report adopted by the UN subcommission or did 
it merely pass resolutions confirming particular aspects of it? May the 
working paper be said to represent the view of the subcommission as a whole?
