It means they are just putting it out to talk about. They will not commit to anything they wrote. Saying without attribution means no ones name will be attached to it as the author. So they might put forward a proposal to end world hunger but not want to agree to spend any money or have any ever accuse them of having said there shouldn't be hungry people.
