UN Summit document disappoints
The New York Times’ 14 September editorial laments the shortcomings of the UN Summit’s Outcome Document. The article decries the lack of management reform proposals, stating that the world leaders’ declaration “should have given the secretary general the power to bypass patronage and rely on merit in choosing and retaining senior officials, creating a crucial institutional safeguard against a replay of the oil-for-food fiasco.” Low Level Panel members couldn’t agree more.
