The Tunis Agenda for the Information Society requested that the United Nations Economic and Social Council (ECOSOC) oversees the system-wide follow-up of the Geneva and Tunis outcomes of the WSIS.

The ECOSOC is assisted by the Commission on Science and Technology for Development (CSTD) as the focal point in the system-wide follow-up of the WSIS.

The tasks of the CSTD are:

• Review and assess progress at the international and regional levels in the implementation of action lines;
• Share best and effective practices;
• Promote dialogue and foster partnerships.

The ECOSOC, in its resolution 2006/46, requested the UN Secretary-General to inform the Commission on Science and Technology for Development (CSTD) on the implementation of the outcomes of the WSIS as part of his annual reporting to the Commission.

The Secretary-General's reports refer to some of the activities of the Global Centre for ICT in Parliament such as the World e-Parliament Conference 2007; the World e-Parliament Conference 2008; the Global Network of IT Experts in Parliament; the African Parliamentary Knowledge Network; the World e-Parliament Report 2008; the Parliamentary Forums on the Role of Parliaments in Shaping the Information Society and the Legal Repository of ICT legislation.
