Extract

The Twenty-fifth International Conference of the Red Cross, held in Geneva in October 1986, revised the 1952 Statutes of the International Red Cross, most of whose provisions dated back to 1928. The Conference thus adopted two drafts which had been submitted for its consideration, respectively entitled “Statutes of the International Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement” and “Rules of Procedure” of the Movement.
