Group on WSIS (WG-WSIS), requesting the Council
to maintain the WG-WSIS in order to facilitate membership input and guidance on the ITU
implementation of relevant WSIS outcomes and to elaborate proposals to the Council that may be necessary for
adapting ITU to its role in building the information society. (Res.
140).
