Worst name ever for a group

Maybe there’s something lost in translation.

The First meeting of the High Level Forum for a better functioning of the food supply chain happened November 16 in Brussels.

“It will adopt a work plan to boost competitiveness and to promote best contractual practices in the European food sector, extending the work of the previous High Level Group on the Competitiveness of the Agro-Food Industry to the whole supply chain. Vice President Antonio Tajani is leading …”

Never mind.

The organization sounds mildly interesting, in a caste-sorta way:

The work of the Forum will be developed along a three-tier structure, namely:
The High Level Forum (Ministers, CEOs, Presidents of associations, etc),
the Sherpa group which mirrors the memberships of the Forum and which will have as main task the preparation of the work of the Forum in close cooperation with the Commission services, several expert platforms (working groups), namely:

Business to business contractual practices in the food supply chain,
Food price monitoring tool,
Competitiveness in the agro-food industry,
Agro-logistics.

Who writes this stuff?
