Extract

On October 31, 1949, the Executive Secretary of ITO (Wyndam-White) circulated to the governments signatory to the Havana Charter a questionnaire as to the dates upon which the government concerned expected to submit the ITO charter to its legislature for ratification, and by which the ratification process was expected to be completed. As of that date, only two signatories, Australia and Liberia, had completed ratification. Of the governments which had responded to a previous inquiry of the Executive Secretary, four (United States, Denmark, France and Norway) had submitted the charter and three others announced their intention of doing so “soon.”
