Workshop II on IRENA`s Statutes & Finance
30 June to 1 July, 2008, at the Paul Löbe Parliament Building

 

Workshop II debated the statutes and financial mechanisms for IRENA and agreed on key elements of the agency’s organisational structure. Three main organs (the Assembly, Council and Secretariat) along with subsidiary organs were agreed on, although a clear distinction between the role of the main and the subsidiary organs has yet to be made. Participants broadly agreed that membership should be open to as many applicants as possible and that procedures for admitting new members and observers should be swift. Further discussion is necessary on the question of membership of international organisations and whether private entities and states should also be allowed to become observers.
