The General Secretariat – under the supervision of the President of the Council – prepares the agenda for the meeting of the General Panel, taking into account the order of topics as presented by the committees, as well as the interests that may necessitate prioritizing one topic over another.

A member of the authority may submit to the President a proposal to include a topic in the authority's agenda, accompanied by an explanatory memorandum outlining the reasons for the proposal, its objectives, and the main principles upon which it is based.
