Extract

The Third World Health Assembly met in Geneva from May 8 to May 27, 1950. Notice of Poland's decision to withdraw from WHO was received August 15 by the Director-General (Dr. Brock Chisholm). By its action, Poland became the tenth member to withdraw. However the Third Assembly did not officially accept the resignations as there was no provision for withdrawal in the WHO Charter and asked that the decisions be reconsidered.
