Following a series of informal consultations with regional groups and individual delegations toward the preparation of a draft programme of work, the Intergovernmental Working Group resumed its session on 28 January 2008. With the view to achieve consensus as to the contents of the programme of work, additional discussions were held in plenary and the programme of work for the first part of the sixth session of the Intergovernmental Working Group was adopted by consensus on 29 January. The meeting of 30 January marked the beginning of its substantive work. 8. Consistent with its agenda and programme of work, the Intergovernmental Working Group proceeded to examine agenda item 3, entitled “Overview of recommendations as part of contribution to the Durban Review Conference”. This item of the agenda and programme of work reflects the request from the Preparatory Committee of the Durban Review Conference under decision PC.1/10 of the Preparatory Committee at its first session (see A/62/375) and Human Rights Council resolution 3/2 of 8 December 2006, in which it requested that the Intergovernmental Working Group and other mechanisms “assist the Preparatory Committee by undertaking review and submitting recommendations, through the Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights, as contributions to the outcome of the Review Conference”. 9.

In its contribution, the recommendations and conclusions have been either updated, deleted or italicized to indicate their non-relevance. The Intergovernmental Working Group removed references to complementary standards from its contribution as its mandate in this regard had been altered. Its review resulted in the adoption of the document entitled: “Compilation of conclusions and recommendations adopted by the Intergovernmental Working Group on the Effective Implementation of the Durban Declaration and Programme of Action” (A/CONF.211/PC.2/7), which was submitted to the Preparatory Committee of the Durban Review Conference as part of the Intergovernmental Working Group’s contribution.
