I think there is a confusion that needs to be addressed here and hopefully
it won't need clarification anymore.

The SO/AC accountability sub-group is being mentioned here because Kavouss
is confusing this group with SO/AC accountability subgroup. This confusion
comes from the fact that I am one of the co-rapporteurs for that
sub-group.  That is a separate sub-group which focusses on SO/AC
accountability.

I am merely a participant in human rights sub-group. Which is this group! I
sent the questions to this group because during the last week session I
volunteered to send questions.
