The final day of the ENA FLEG Preparatory Conference focused on two draft texts: "The Structure of the St. Petersburg Declaration" and "Elements for the ENA FLEG Indicative List of Actions." Both texts were drafted by the Co-facilitators and will serve as the basis for government and non-governmental stakeholder deliberations in the run up to the ENA FLEG Ministerial Conference. In the morning, two groups met separately in the morning, one composed of government delegates and the other of industry, civil society and other stakeholders, to discuss both texts. Participants met in a joint morning plenary session to review the outcomes of the two group discussions, and hear closing statements from Industry, Civil Society, and other stakeholder groups. In the afternoon, Co-facilitators Jag Maini and Jürgen Blaser summarized the deliberations of the Preparatory Conference, and explained the next steps to prepare a draft Ministerial Declaration and Indicative Action Plan. The Co-facilitators also outlined the preparation process and timeline for the documents, leading to their consideration during the ENA FLEG Ministerial Conference in December 2005.
Issues Consolidation
On Wednesday morning, two draft texts prepared overnight by the conference co-facilitators were distributed to participants: “The Structure of the St. Petersburg Declaration” and “Elements for the ENA FLEG Indicative List of Actions.” The conference then broke into two discussion groups, one for government delegates and another for industry, civil society and other stakeholders.
 Some Russian NGOs expressed concern about sufficient opportunities to comment on the draft structure of the St. Petersburg Declaration and indicative list of actions and overall involvement of civil society in the ENA FLEG process, and suggested appointing an ENA FLEG ombudsman as a possible modus operandi for conflict resolution
Valery Roshupkin, Russian Ministry of Natural Resources, thanked all participants for the important work done, highlighting valuable input from civil society and the private sector, which will serve as a basis in preparing the Ministerial Conference. He also said that FLEG issues will be taken forward during Russia 's upcoming G8 Presidency. In closing, he invited all participants to St. Petersburg and closed the meeting at 16:45
