Order of the day, 5 March 2015
Speaking time arrangements for a clustered interactive dialogue (“ID”)
with special procedures mandate holders
1. The following arrangements have been made for the 28th session on a temporary basis.
2. The total duration of each clustered ID will not exceed 4 hours.
3. Each special procedures mandate holder in a cluster will introduce his/her reports within 15
minutes and respond to questions and make concluding remarks within 15 minutes. The total
amount of time for two mandate holders is: 1 hour
4. Countries concerned will be given 5 minutes each as in the past. In case there are 6 countries
concerned, the total amount of time is: 30 minutes
5. The total amount of time for NGOs remains unchanged: 30 minutes
6. As soon as the list of speakers is available following the electronic registration, the
secretariat will calculate the estimated time needed to complete the clustered ID with the
mandate holders.
7. Should the total duration of a given ID be estimated to last less than 4 hours, the speaking
time limits will remain 5 minutes for Members (and groups) and 3 minutes for
Observers. However, if it is estimated to be more than 4 hours, the speaking time limits will
be reduced to 3 minutes for Members (and groups) and 2 minutes for Observers. Should
this measure be deemed insufficient to ensure that the total duration not exceed 4 hours, the
speaking time limit will be further reduced to 2 minutes for Members (and groups) and 2
minutes for Observers or the total time may be divided equally among all with a minimum
of 1.5 minute per speaker.
