DECISION CONCERNING THE INTRODUCTION OF THE EAGENDA  
IN THE WORK OF THE CTG ON A TRIAL BASIS  
DECISION ADOPTED THROUGH WRITTEN PROCEDURES  
ON 10  FEBRUARY  2023 
The Council for Trade in Goods (CTG) decided that the following actions will be taken:  
 
• The Secretariat will begin developing an eAgenda system that responds to the needs of the 
CTG, including the preparation of a mock platform so that Members can test it;  
• Once the mock eAgenda platform has been prepared, the Secretariat will inform M embers 
of the arrangements for testing it and offer training to delegates on the use of this digital 
tool; 
• Following the conclusion of the testing period, Members will be invited to provide feedback 
and propose adjustments. The Secretariat will inform Memb ers of any such adjustment;  
• The eAgenda will be used to prepare the agenda of a formal meeting once the platform has 
been successfully tested and adjusted as necessary;  
• It is understood that the use of eAgenda on a trial basis will remain voluntary and del egations 
may continue to request the inclusion of agenda items through the usual channels, namely 
via an email communication directly to the CTG's Secretary. For transparency, the 
Secretariat will include any such request in the eAgenda;  
• Finally, it is und erstood that the Minutes will continue to be prepared in a way that reflects 
what was said at the meeting.
