Comments and suggestions made orally in the course of the Working Group's seventh session have been analytically summarized in the Working Group's report (E/CN.4/Sub.2/1989/36).

In resolution 1989/34, the Sub-Commission recommended that the Chairman/Rapporteur of the Working Group be entrusted with the task of preparing a second revised text of the déclaration to be based on comments made orally at sessions of the Working Group and on written observations and suggestions received from Govemments, indigenous peoples, intergovemmental and non-governmental organizations.

The content does not seem to be directly related to economic development, natural resources, or other specific sectors, but rather focuses on the rights of a specific group of people.
