CIDIP-VII was convened by the General Assembly of the Organization of
American States through resolutions [AG/RES 1923 (XXXIII-0/03)] and
[AG/RES 2033 (XXXIV-0/04)] pursuant to which the Permanent Council was
instructed to conduct consultations with the Member States concerning
possible agenda topics. To comply with this mandate, the Permanent
Council’s Committee on Juridical and Political Affairs requested that
Member States present proposals for the agenda. Although Member States
proposed a total of eight topics, it was ultimately agreed that
CIDIP-VII should focus on a maximum of two. The General Assembly,
through resolution [AG/RES 2065 (XXXV-0/05], formally approved the
agenda for CIDIP-VII, as follows: (topic one) Consumer Protection,
Including Applicable Law, Jurisdiction, and Monetary Redress
(Conventions and Model Laws); and (topic two) Secured Transactions,
Electronic Registry Implementation of the Model Inter-American Law on
Secured Transactions and instructed the Permanent Council to establish a
methodology for the necessary preparatory work. Member States designated
Official Governmental Experts to participate in the preparatory work for
these topics. In addition, the General Assembly also requested the
Inter-American Juridical Committee to contribute to the preparatory work
for CIDIP-VII and requested the Secretariat to explore means of
collaboration with international organizations with expertise on these
topics, including the Hague Conference on Private International Law, the
United Nations Commission on International Trade Law (UNCITRAL), the
International Institute for the Unification of Private Law (UNIDROIT),
and the Inter-American Development Bank, among others.
