Cecilia Gowar (asker) Mar 20, 2019:
Not really Julie. The rest of the phrase says "the above mentioned criteria" and then they continue discussing the subject in what is defined here as a "synthèse sectorielle". It is really an overview of the sector but since the concept is sometimes translated as "approach paper" I decided to pick my colleagues'brains. But I see everybody is also in two minds.
Julie Barber Mar 20, 2019:
Hi Cecilia. Is there anymore context? I would normally agree with the answer that Francois provided, but think that we need more info. Thanks
philgoddard Mar 20, 2019:
I'm none the wiser because I don't know what you mean by vigilance. And I didn't want you to disclose the names, just who these parties are. Never mind!
Cecilia Gowar (asker) Mar 19, 2019:
Vigilance plans have to do with the duty if vigilance law.
The XXX are names that cannot be disclosed, as usual.
philgoddard Mar 19, 2019:
What are vigilance plans? What do the Xs represent?
It sounds like "sector summary", but it would be nice to know what the sector is.
