Perhaps the following phrasing would be more appropriately constraining: The role of the secretariat is strictly limited to the functions that support the ICG as described above. Nothing in this decription of functions should be read beyond its plain english meaning and the secretariat is not clothed with any authority to speak on behalf of the ICG to third parties or the press, to develop independent positions or to draw conclusions from inputs or actions of the ICG.

Agreed. Very important.
-----Original Message----- This version should be further enhanced by explicitly listing *non* tasks:
"It is not the task of the secretary to draw conclusions from inputs or actions of the ICG."
"It is not the task of the secretary to interpret or explain actions of the ICG for third parties, particularly the press."
and
"Part of the task of summarising is to maintain an archive of the summarised material that is easily accessible and referenced appropriately from the summaries."
