The first meeting of the newest science-policy panel already shows how far this new body must travel before its first report is published
Hours were spent at #ISPCWP1 on how to elect the Chair, with the rest of the Bureau's membership still undecided

Still working through the rules of procedure. Two rules agreed in the past two hours.
Other delegates are trying to find a way forward to quicken the pace on this last day of negotiations. There's hope to set up the @unep.org science-policy panel for chemicals, waste & pollution. #ISPCWP1
