BILLING CODE 8025-01-P DEPARTMENT OF STATE [Public Notice 8789] U.S. Department of State Advisory Committee on Private International Law (ACPIL): Public Meeting on Conciliated Settlement Agreements The Office of the Assistant Legal Adviser for Private International Law, Department of State, gives notice of a public meeting to discuss possible work related to international commercial conciliation in the United Nations Commission on International Trade Law (UNCITRAL). The public meeting will take place on Thursday, July 31, 2014 from 9:00 a.m. until 12 p.m.
EDT. This is not a meeting of the full Advisory Committee. At its July 2014 session, UNCITRAL will be deciding what projects, if any, its Working Group II (Arbitration and Conciliation) should begin at its fall 2014 meeting. The United States has proposed that the Working Group develop a convention on the enforcement of conciliated settlement agreements that resolve international commercial disputes. *See* A/CN.9/822, *available at* *http://www.uncitral.org/uncitral/commission/sessions/47th.html.* UNCITRAL may or may not decide to develop such a convention.
The purpose of the public meeting is to obtain the views of concerned stakeholders on what any such convention should provide and how the various issues identified in the proposal should be addressed. Those who cannot attend but wish to comment are welcome to do so by email to Tim Schnabel at *SchnabelTR@state.gov.* *Time and Place:* The meeting will take place from 9:00 a.m. until 12:00 p.m. in Room 4835, Harry S Truman Building, 2201 C Street NW., Washington, DC 20520.
