[Public Notice: 10707]
U.S. Department of State Advisory Committee on Private
International Law (ACPIL): Public Meeting on Electronic Commerce--
Identity Management
The Office of the Assistant Legal Adviser for Private International
Law, Department of State, gives notice of a public meeting to discuss
work by the United Nations Commission on International Trade Law
(UNCITRAL) in the area of identity management. The public meeting will
take place on Monday, April 2, 2019, from 9:30 a.m. until 12 p.m. EDT.
This is not a meeting of the full Advisory Committee.
At its 2018 annual meeting, the Commission decided that UNCITRAL's
Working Group IV should conduct work on legal issues relating to
identity management and trust services, with a view to preparing a text
aimed at facilitating cross-border recognition of identity management
and trust services. Neither the Commission nor the Working Group have
taken a decision concerning the form of any instrument to be developed.
To facilitate the work of the Working Group, the UNCITRAL Secretariat
has drafted ``Draft Provisions on the Cross-border Recognition of
[Identity Management] and Trust Services'' (UN Doc. A/CN.9/WG.IV/
WP.157), available at https://undocs.org/en/A/CN.9/WG.IV/WP.157, and
``Explanatory Remarks on the Draft Provisions on the Cross-border
Recognition of Identity Management and Trust Services'' (UN Doc. A/
CN.9/WG.IV/WP.158), available at https://undocs.org/en/A/CN.9/WG.IV/WP.158.
The purpose of the public meeting is to obtain the views of
concerned stakeholders on the issues presented in
[[Page 9411]]
the Draft Provisions as well as the accompanying Explanatory Remarks.

presented within the notes. Those who cannot attend but wish to comment
