Extract

The report of the International Telecommunication Union submitted to ECOSOC on June 11, 1951, was accompanied by a statement by the Secretary-General (Mulatier) in response to ECOSOC's resolution requesting all specialized agencies in the economic and social fields to review their programs with an eye to the concentration of all efforts and resources on the most urgent tasks. Noting that ITU's program of work was governed by the Atlantic City Convention (1947) and that the Union's 1952 activities would relate to its regular task of enabling its members to operate their international telecommunications services and to the holding of any conferences which might be essential for the performance of that task, the Secretary-General expressed the opinion that the program would not appear to include any activities of the kind contemplated in the ECOSOC resolution.
