informal consultations

 
     
  In the UN context:

Private meetings of the Security Council not governed (as are those concerned for example with the appointment of a Secretary-General) by the Charter or the Council\'s provisional rules of procedure. This class of private meetings is usually referred to as ‘informal consultations of the whole’ or ‘informals’, and they take place in the Consultation Room, which is adjacent to the Council Chamber where the public meetings of the Security Council are held. Built in 1978, the Consultation Room is now the scene of most of the serious work done by this key organ of the United Nations. No official records are kept of informal consultations.


Any informal meeting in connection with the work of the Security Council, including those of caucus groups, groups of friends, contact groups, and Arria formula meetings.
