According our proposal the question of: Mission and Functions, has to be
a risult of the consultation process.

Yes, I agree, in the analysis of the results it's important to divide
for the different type of organizations.

Yes, I agree. Open consultation for a defined body !!! There are
different solutions: if we decided for a large IC may be we need a
Secretariat or Executive body. If we decide for a suitable IC (50-100)
may be it's enouth to work with Commissions and 1-2 persons from the
Commissions can become a restricted coordination body, etc. etc. But,
again, this discussion have to be realized after the consultation process.

Yes, it's an open question.

Yes. Done.

Matrix 1: is the questionaire
Matrix 2: is the box related to the second question on
"representativeness"; each organization can define own criteria of
representativeness; defining criteria/labels and defining the wheight (1

That is the question, the consultation process will give us the answer.

May be we can make some test for verifying the validity of the
Questionaire !! Ishould be the first.
