FORTY-FIRST SESSION

INTRODUCTION

1. The Forty-First Session of the Council of the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations was held at FAO headquarters in Rome from 11 to 13 November 1963 under the chairmanship of Mr. Louis Maire. Mr. Abdel Fattah El Morsi (UAR) and Mr. A.C.B. Maiden (Australia) were appointed First Vice-Chairman and Second Vice-Chairman, respectively.

2. The agenda for the session, as adopted, is set out in Appendix A.

Disasters in the Federal Republic of Germany and Japan

3. The Council requested its Chairman to extend the condolences of the Council Members to the governments of the Federal Republic of Germany and Japan for the recent tragic disasters suffered by those countries.

I. ARRANGEMENTS FOR THE TWELFTH SESSION OF THE CONFERENCE

Agenda for the session

4. The provisional agenda, as approved by the Fortieth Session of the Council held in June 1963, was circulated to all Member Nations on 17 July 1963 as C 63/1 first draft.

5. Under Rule II-5 of the General Rules of the Organization, any Member Nation or Associate Member may request the inclusion of additional items, provided such requests reach the Director-General not less than thirty days before the opening of a Conference session. Only one such request was received by the Director-General on this occasion. It came from the Government of Ghana and its purpose was to provide for the possibility of amending Article II of the Constitution in order that a Member or Associate Member Nation of FAO that breaks or continues to break, in a persistent way, the principles enunciated in the Constitution, may be excluded from Membership by the Conference by a two-thirds majority of the votes cast, provided that such majority shall represent one half of the Member Nations present. This communication reached the Director-General on July 1963, i.e., before the deadline for submitting draft amendments to the Constitution, and its text was duly circulated to all Member Nations by circular letter G/286 dated 18 July 1963, in accordance with Article XX-3 of the Constitution.

6. The Council noted that the proposal submitted by the Government of Ghana was in conformity with the procedural requirements of the Constitution and that it was included in a supplementary list (C 63/1-Add.1). The Council recommended that the Provisional Agenda be completed by including this subject under Item 19(a) “Amendments to the Constitution and General Rules of the Organization”, and that it be entitled “Exclusion from Membership in FAO - Proposal from the Government of Ghana.”

7. The Council noted that Item 17 “Reorientation of FAO's Activities and Co-ordination of Programs” covered two subjects which are already provided for under Items 11(a) and 16 respectively. Thus Item 17 of the Provisional Agenda was unnecessary and the Council recommended its deletion.

8. In conclusion, and in accordance with Rule II-11 of the General Rules of the Organization, the Council recommended approval of the Provisional Agenda set out in C 63/1 - first draft, subject to the insertion of the additional item given in paragraph 6 above and the elimination of Item 17.

Organization of the session

9. The Council's proposals for the planning of the Twelfth Session of the Conference set out in document C 63/4-Rev.1, were circulated to all Member Nations and Associate Members on 8 August 1963.

10. The Council noted that the proposed elimination of Item 17 of the Provisional Agenda would make it possible for Commission II to initiate consideration of the Draft Program of Work and Budget half a day earlier than had been visualized in the proposed time-table in C 63/4 Rev.1.

11. The Council considered, however, that advantage should be taken of any possibility to move further forward the examination of this very important subject. While not wishing to recommend any alteration of the provisional timetable at that stage, it was pleased to note that the suggestion would be borne in mind by the Secretary-General of the Conference.

12. The Council had no other comments on the arrangements for the Session.

Appointment of the Chairman of the Conference and chairmen of the three commissions

13. In accordance with Rule VII-1, the Council at its Fortieth Session nominated Mr. Shiroshi Nasu (Japan) for appointment as Chairman of the Conference at its Twelfth Session.

14. The Council also nominated the following chairmen of commissions:

Commission I:Mr. R. Renne (United States of America)
Commission II:Mr. A. Davatchi (Iran)
Commission III:Prof. E. Saari (Finland)

In addition, it decided to nominate Professor Michel Cépède (France) as rapporteur of Commission II.

Rapporteurs and drafting committees

15. In accordance with the practice adopted at recent Conference sessions, the Conference may wish to consider the following suggestions:

  1. either to appoint a rapporteur or establish a drafting subcommittee for the preparation of the reports of Commissions I and III (the rapporteur of Commission II was nominated by the Council - see paragraph 12 above).

  2. to appoint such rapporteurs or the chairmen of such drafting subcommittees as members of a drafting committee on resolutions, responsible for examining all draft resolutions before they are submitted to the Conference for final approval.

Receptions during the Conference session

16. Following the request of the Council that Member Governments wishing to hold receptions during the Conference session should inform the Secretary-General of the Conference, the Secretary-General reported that only 8 requests had been received by 11 November. The Council was gratified to note that its appeal had been heard and again commended to the attention of the delegations attending the session the desirability of limiting the number of receptions to be given during the period thereof for the reasons set out in C 63/4-Rev.1. paragraphs 39 to 43.

II ACTIVITIES OF THE ORGANIZATION

United Nations Special Fund Agency costs

17. The Council noted from the report of the Finance Committee on the audited interim accounts, Regular Program 1962, and the report of the external auditors thereon, the following statement of the external auditor in connection with the allocation of headquarters and regional office costs between the Regular Program and field programs:

“In previous reports my predecessor and I have referred to the allocation of headquarters and regional office costs between the regular and technical assistance programs. This subject has consequently assumed greater importance as a result of the increase in the number and size of field programs administered by the Organization, particularly those of the Expanded Program of Technical Assistance(EPTA) and the United Nations Special Fund (UNSF), which together accounted for about 60 percent of the Organization's total obligations incurred (nearly $40 million) in 1962.

The amount contributed by EPTA toward the Organization's headquarters and regional office costs during 1962, determined on the basis of 12 percent of the 1959 project allocations in accordance with ECOSOC Resolution 737 (XXVIII) dated 30 July 1959, was $918,400 (Statement II). The amount allotted to the Organization for such costs by UNSF in 1962 was $1,274,900 (UNSF Financial Statements 1962, Schedule B). These sums represented, respectively, about 6 percent and 8 percent of the Organization's total expenditure in 1962 (some $16 million), in headquarters and regional offices.

A sample survey undertaken by the Organization in 1962, the results of which were confirmed by a further survey in March 1963, showed that in 1962 FAO headquarters and regional office professional staff spent 17 percent of their time on the EPTA program and 16 percent on the UNSF program. The 1963 survey indicated that in 1964/65 the corresponding figures would be 16 percent on the EPTA program and 17 percent on the UNSF program and that the contributions of these programs to FAO headquarters and regional office costs would be 5 percent and 8 percent respectively. As regards EPTA, the report on the 1963 survey stated that, while the principle seemed generally established of providing a subvention equivalent to 12 percent of field project allocations, the proposed use of a more realistic costings base in the application of this percentage was expected to provide a relatively larger sum than at present. As regards the Special Fund, the view of the Organization that there was an incontrovertible case for an increased contribution was known to the UNSF authorities who had the matter under consideration.”

18. When considering the audited accounts, the United Nations Special Fund 1962 and the report of the external auditor thereon, the Council noted that the external auditor had made the following comment:

"Allotment of the overhead costs of the Organization as Executive Agency

“Schedule B shows that the amount allotted for the year, and treated as fully expended, in respect of the Executive Agency's overhead costs was $1,274,900. As stated in my report on the Regular Program interim accounts for the calendar year 1962, the amount represented a contribution of about 8 percent of FAO's Headquarters and regional office costs in 1962, whereas surveys undertaken by the Organization indicated that the proportion of time spent by professional staff at these offices on UNSF activities was 16 percent.”

The Council suggested that the Conference take the above comments by the external auditor into account when discussing item 16 of its Agenda.

19. The Council recalled that it was informed during its Fortieth Session that the Managing Director of the Special Fund had appointed a consultant to visit the executing agencies to prepare a report on the most equitable basis for reimbursement and that this report had been submitted to the Managing Director but not made available to the Director-General.

20. The Managing Director had proposed and the Governing Council of the Special Fund had agreed that the present formula for reimbursement of agency costs, i.e. 3 percent for equipment and supplies and 11 percent for all other items would be retained until a further re-examination of the level of reimbursement based on the experience which might be acquired in project implementation, but not later than 31 December 1965.

21. The Council also considered another significant feature, i.e., the rejection by the Managing Director of the Organization's request for reimbursement, over and above the agency costs percentage, of the additional identifiable costs of past and future post adjustments classification increases and cost of living adjustments for General Service staff, which inclusive of forthcoming adjustments, were approaching $500,000.

22. The Council expressed its concern that the Director-General had not been able to obtain any positive consideration of the above-mentioned problems in view of the fact that the current percentages for agency costs were insufficient as shown by the studies of the impact of operational programs on the Regular Program. The Council regretted that the report of the consultant had not been made available.

23. The Council agreed with the Finance Committee that a review of the agency costs percentages should be undertaken by the United Nations Special Fund not later than mid-1964, which would enable the Director-General to take into account the results of the review when preparing the program of work and budget for the biennium 1966–67.

24. This review should include serious reconsideration of the reimbursement of the identifiable costs for post adjustment classification and cost of living adjustments which since they must be paid to the staff whose emoluments were charged to agency costs, further aggravated the position.

25. The Council requested the Director-General to ask the Managing Director to bring the views of the Council as expressed at its Thirty-Ninth, Fortieth and Forty-First Sessions, to the attention of the Governing Council of the Special Fund.

III. CONSTITUTIONAL AND LEGAL MATTERS

Draft agreement for an eastern regional commission for the control of the desert locust

26. The Special FAO Conference on the Eastern Desert Locust Region (Teheran, October 1962) unanimously decided that a regional commission for the control of the desert locust should be established within the framework of FAO for the region. The Fortieth Session of the FAO Council (Rome, 24 June 1963) noted the recommendations formulated by that conference as well as by the meeting of Member Nations directly concerned, which was held in Rome on 2–3 May 1963 and by the Eighth Session of the FAO Desert Locust Committee (Rome, 6–9 May 1963) to the effect that an agreement for the establishment of such a commission be concluded as soon as possible.

27. In view of the dates of the recommendations mentioned above, it was not possible to convene a session of the Committee on Constitutional and Legal Matters (CCLM) to consider the Draft Agreement which had been prepared at the conference in Teheran and to have the Report of the CCLM circulated in time for the Fortieth Session of the Council.

28. That session of the Council therefore referred the consideration of the Draft Convention to the Tenth Session of the CCLM (July 1963) and decided that the report of the CCLM on the Draft Agreement should be submitted directly to the Twelfth Session of the Conference.

29. The CCLM, having carefully considered the Draft Agreement, made several modifications thereto in the light of the comments of the representatives of the four governments directly concerned (Afghanistan, India, Iran and Pakistan) and of the principles governing conventions and agreements adopted by the Ninth Session of the FAO Conference.

30. In accordance with the instructions of the Council, the text of the Agreement, as amended by the CCLM, was circulated on 25 July to all Member Governments and Associate Members of the Organization as Appendix I to Conference document C 63/50 and included in the Provisional Agenda of the Twelfth Session of the Conference.

31. When considering the Draft Agreement at its Forty-First Session, the Council decided to suggest the following minor modifications to the Conference:

  1. Replace the heading of the Agreement by the following “Draft Agreement for a Commission for Controlling the Desert Locust in the Eastern Region of its distribution area in Southwest Asia.” This would entail consequential amendments to the preamble and to Article I of the Agreement.

  2. In the preamble delete the word “West” appearing before the word “Pakistan”, and after the words “Trucial States” enumerate these states in parentheses.

IV. ADMINISTRATIVE AND FINANCIAL MATTERS

FINANCIAL MATTERS

32. The Council considered the report of the Tenth Session of the Finance Committee (CL 41/5).

Status of contributions

33. The Council shared the concern of the Finance Committee over the worsening financial situation of the Organization. While it learned with satisfaction that certain Member Governments were in the course of liquidating all or a part of their financial obligations to the Organization, it was gravely concerned to note that at 13 November 1963 there was an anticipated cash deficit for the 1962–63 biennium of $561,720. This would be the first time in the history of the Organization that a cash deficit had arisen. The Council observed that this income deficit arose from unpaid contributions, especially of several larger contributors, as well as from contributions in arrears. The status of outstanding current and arrear contributions is given in Appendix I to this report.

34. The Council recalled that already at its Fortieth Session in June 1963 it had expressed concern at the increased amount of unpaid contributions and by Resolution No. 7/40 had appealed to Member Nations concerned to ensure that all contributions to the Organization were paid promptly and requested the Director-General to bring Art.III, paragraph 4 of the Constitution to the attention of the Member Nations concerned. The Council was informed that the resolution was conveyed to the Member Nations.

35. At its Fortieth Session the Council noted that six countries were in danger of losing their voting rights; and while two of these countries had taken the necessary steps to regularize their contributions position, four Member Nations, namely Bolivia, Haiti, Panama, and Paraguay had not yet done so.

36. The Council drew the attention of the Conference to the fact that, if Member Nations did not take the necessary action to ensure payment of their contributions by the end of 1963, there would be a cash deficit and serious program implications would arise in the next biennium. The Council also noted that, unless the contribution position improved very substantially before the end of 1963, the proposed method of financing emergency actions of control of livestock diseases would not be practicable. (see para.57). In addition, the Council stressed that the Regular Program formed the basis of the operational(field) programs of the Organization. Lack of support of the Regular Program eroded its capacity to support these programs, thus reducing their effectiveness. The Council noted that the Finance Committee would take these facts into account when studying with the Director-General additional measures for obtaining payment of contributions in arrears, as requested by the Fortieth Session of the Council.

Amendment to Financial Regulation 10.3

37. The Council noted that the Financial Regulations required reporting of ex-gratia payments to the ensuing session of the Finance Committee while financial reporting requirements provide that such payments be set forth in the audited accounts as well. Since the audited accounts afford the opportunity for appropriate comments by the external auditor, the Council agreed to recommend that the Conference approve the following revision of Financial Regulation 10.3:

(Additions underlined, Deletions [ ] ):

10.3 The Director-General may, under exceptional circumstances make such ex-gratia payments as he deems necessary in the interests of the Organization [and shall report thereon to the following session of the Finance Committee], provided that a statement of such payments shall be submitted with the annual accounts.

Program of Work and Budget 1964/65: Revision in budgetary estimates

38. The Council reviewed Finance Committee report (CL 41/5, para. 18) on the revision of budgetary estimates. Taking into account the inclusion of $790,000 which covers post adjustment Class 3, and a further 5 percent increase in General Service Salaries, (see Resolution No.1/41 para. 52) in the 1964/65 budget estimates, the Council noted that the revised budget level, it all reductions proposed by the Finance Committee were taken into account, would be $39,338,300. The corresponding assessmentbudget would be $36,031,956. The Council was informed, however, that the Director-General had certain reservations on some of the reductions suggested by the Committee.

Emergency fund for the control of livestock disease

39. The Council reviewed the proposal of the Director-General to establish a fund (to be financed from the excess miscellaneous income over that budgeted for 1962–63) to enable the Organization to deal quickly with sudden outbreaks of epizootic disease and the Finance Committee's comments thereon.

40. The Council shared the appreciation of the Finance Committee of the importance of the proposal. The Council was also aware of the worsening financial situation of the Organization due to nonpayment of contributions. It noted that the excess miscellaneous income in 1962–63 would in all probability now be required to make up in part the expected shortfall in contributions. In the light of this situation, the Council found that the implementation of the original proposal of the Director-General for the establishment of a special fund for this purpose, as outlined in C 63/38, was not feasible at this time.

41. On the other hand, if the present financial position should improve before the end of 1963 through payment of contributions by member nations, the Council agreed with the Finance Committee that ways and means should be found to contribute to the solution of this important problem facing the Organization, if the Conference so decided. In this spirit and to this effect, the Council recommended that if at the end of the biennium 1962–63 a cash surplus of at least $50,000 should arise,

  1. the Conference authorize the Director-General notwithstanding Financial Regulation 6.1 (b) to withold the distribution of such surplus;

  2. the Conference authorize the Director-General, if the need should arise, to withdraw from the Working Capital Fund an amount up to an equivalent of the surplus referred to above for the purpose of financing the initial operations of an emergency nature for the control of livestock diseases, as outlined in C 63/38, and taking account of the observations of the Technical Committee on Agriculture (C 63/AG/7); and

  3. the Conference to decide that the Working Capital Fund should be reimbursed from the cash surplus of the biennium 1962–63 for the withdrawal as authorized under para. (a) above.

42. In the Conference approved the proposal outlined above, the Council instructed the Finance Committee to develop the necessary financial procedures for the utilization of the monies withdrawn from the Working Capital Fund under (b) above, for the approval of the Council at its session in 1964.

Audited accounts for 1962

(a) Expanded Program of Technical Assistance

43. The Council examined the audited accounts of the Expanded Program of the Technical Assistance for the financial year ended 31 December 1962, and forwarded them to the Conference for adoption in the terms of the following fowarded them to the Conference for adoption in the terms of the following draft resolution:

Audited accounts of the Expanded Program of Technical Assistance for 1962

THE CONFERENCE

(b) United National Special Fund - audited accounts for 1962

44. The Council examined the audited accounts of the United Nations Special Fund for the financial year ended 31 December 1962, and forwarded them to the Conference for adoption in the terms of the following draft resolution:

Audited accounts of the United Nations Special Fund for 1962

THE CONFERENCE

(c) European Commission for the Control of Foot and Mouth Disease - audited accounts for 1962

45. The Council examined the audited accounts of the European Commission for the Control of Foot and Mouth Disease for the financial year ended 31 December 1962, and forwarded them to the Conference for adoption in the terms of the following draft resolution:

Audited accounts of the European Commission for the Control of Foot and Mouth Disease for 1962

THE CONFERENCE

Having examined the audited accounts of the European Commission for the Control of Foot and Mouth Disease for the financial year 1962 and the external auditor's report thereon,

Adopts the audited accounts for the above-mentioned period.”

(d) World Food Program - Audited accounts for 1962

46. The Council examined the audited accounts of the World Food Program for the financial year ended 31 December 1962, and forwarded them to the Conference for adoption in the terms of the following draft resolution:

Audited accounts of the World Food Program 1962

THE CONFERENCE

Having examined the audited accounts of the World Food Program for the financial year 1962 and the external auditor's report thereon,

Adopts the audited accounts for the above-mentioned period.”

Miscellaneous

47. The Council noted the report of the Finance Committee of the following items:

  1. Interim accounts of the Regular Program and Freedom from Hunger Campaign for 1962.

  2. World Food Program - 1964 budget estimates.

  3. Financial report on the Freedom from Hunger Campaign as at 30 September 1963.

  4. Transfers in the 1962–63 biennium.

ADMINISTRATIVE MATTERS

Post adjustment and cost-of-living adjustment for staff at headquarters

48. The Council noted that in the light of the latest figures available from the International Labour Office, which computes special cost-of-living indices for international officials and for locally recruited General Service staff in Rome, it appeared most likely that on or before 1 January 1964 Rome would reach Class 3 (approximately 115) for post adjustment purposes with respect to staff in the Professional category and above, and also that a 5 percent cost-of-living adjustment would become payable for General Service staff on or about the same time.

49. The specific dates on which such adjustments would become due would not be ascertained until later index figures were available; however, in the absence of special authorization from the current session of the Council, the Director-General would be left without authority to take the action provided for under the common system of salaries and allowances until the Council met again which, since 1964 is a non-Conference year, might not be until October 1964. The Council agreed that such a delay of nearly a full year would be undesirable and create hardships in view of the continuing cost-of-living increase. The Council therefore approved the Director-General's request as endorsed by the Finance Committee, for authorization to introduce the Class 3 post adjustment from the first of the month following the month during which the sliding average of 115 was reached, and also to put into effect the 5 percent cost-of-living adjustment for General Service staff when the index so warranted.

50. The Council noted that under the procedure which it had previously approved, the 5 percent cost-of-living increase for the General Service staff would be incorporated into the pensionable rates of the General Service salary schedule as of 1 January 1964, if effective no later than that date.

51. The Council agreed with the Director-General's proposal to absorb within the existing resources any cost resulting from Class 3 post adjustment and the General Service cost-of-living adjustment which might be incurred during 1963. It also agreed with the recommendation made by the Finance Committee, and accepted by the Director-General, that suitable provision should be made in the 1964–65 Budget for what was in effect a mandatory commitment, and that a provision of $790,000 representing the estimated cost of the two adjustments should be distributed as appropriate among the individual chapters of the Budget.

52. The Council therefore adopted the following resolution:

Resolution No. 1/41

POST ADJUSTMENT AND COST-OF-LIVING ADJUSTMENT FOR STAFF AT HEADQUARTERS

THE COUNCIL

Noting that, on the basis of the quarterly cost-of-living index maintained for international civil servants in Rome by the International Labour Office, the duty station Rome is likely to advance during the last quarter of 1963 from Class 2 to Class 3 for post adjustment purposes and that, as of the following month, an increased post adjustment will be payable to staff in the Professional category and above in accordance with the approved procedure of the United Nations and the specialized agencies operating under the common system of salaries and allowances,

Noting further that a 5 percent non-pensionable cost-of-living adjustment is likely to be payable on or about 1 January 1964 to the staff in the General Service category in accordance with the procedure which the Council approved at its Thirty-Fifth Session,

Concurs in the establishment of Rome as Class 3 for post adjustment purposes, effective as of the first of the month following the change in the post adjustment classification of Rome, under the approved procedure, for eligible staff in the Professional category and above who are on the payroll on the first of the month in which the increased post adjustment is due, and

Concurs also in the payment of a nonpensionable 5 percent cost-of-living adjustment as of the month following the appropriate change in the sliding index, under the approved procedure, for eligible staff in the General Service category in Rome who are on the payroll on the first of the month in which the adjustment is due.

THE COUNCIL ALSO

Noting that any cost resulting from the Class 3 post adjustment and the General Service cost-of-living adjustment which might be incurred during 1963 would be absorbed within existing resources of the 1962–63 biennium,

Noting further that the cost of the Class 3 adjustment and the General Service cost-of-living adjustment would amount to approximately $790,000 during the 1964–65 biennium,

Decides that the estimated cost of the two adjustments should be included in the 1964–65 Program of Work and Budget, distributed as appropriate among the individual chapters of the budget.

Rome General Service Salary schedule - adjustments between comprehensive surveys

53. The Director-General informed the Fortieth Session of the Council that he was instituting a study with a view to formulating concrete proposals for consideration at the next session of the Finance Committee, regarding the practicability of introducing a “wage index” system, in compliance with a request by staff representatives, to be used between comprehensive surveys of prevailing wages in Rome, in place of the existing cost-of-living index.

54. The Council noted that the survey had not yet been completed in view of the need for further investigation and analysis. The Director-General indicated his expectation that the results of the survey would be available for presentation at the next regular session of the Finance Committee in 1964 and at the subsequent session of the Council.

Amendments to the Staff Regulations

55. The Council reviewed the proposals by the Director-General, endorsed by the Finance Committee, for amendments to the Staff Regulations governing repatriation grant, language allowance and termination indemnity (CL 41/2).

56. The proposed modifications in the regulations governing repatriation grant were based primarily on the interagency agreement for simultaneous elimination of the service benefit. The proposed amendment in the regulation covering payment of language allowance to General Service staff would permit payment of that allowance at a flat rate rather than at a rate which varies according to the grade and step of the person concerned as was the existing practice; if approved, this change would also be implemented by all agencies applying the common system of salaries and allowances. The amendment proposed to Staff Regulation 301.153 simply involved an editorial clarification of the regulation regarding termination indemnity.

57. The Council approved the proposed amendments to the Staff Regulations set out in the appendixes to CL 41/2, with the understanding that the Director-General would give effect to the changes relating to the repatriation grant, the abolition of the service benefit, and the payment of the language allowance in accordance with the action taken by the General Assembly of the United Nations, to be effective in FAO as of the same date as in the United Nations.

58. The Council noted that the Director-General would submit to the next session of the Finance Committee the amount of the flat-rate language allowance which would be proposed for Rome as a result of interagency consultation.

Headquarters accommodation

59. The Council recommended that the Conference express its warm appreciation to the Italian Government for the outstanding assistance rendered to the Organization in all phases of headquarters accomodation and related matters.

60. The Council noted that special efforts by the Italian Government had resulted in recent progress with respect to the construction of the new wing, Building C, to the point where partial occupancy had commenced. The Council recommended the Conference to urge that the acceleration be continued in order to permit complete occupancy of Building C in the early months of 1964.

61. In view of the growing requirements of the Organization, primarily due to the introduction of several large-scale new activities, the Director-General would be compelled to continue the use of temporary premises even after the completion of Building C. The Council considered that steps should be taken to eliminate the use of such temporary premises, which involved work disruptions and extra costs. The Council therefore recommended that the Conference endorse a request to the Italian Government for the allocation, at a not too distant time, of the adjoining building presently occupied by the Italian Ministry of Posts and Telegraphs, which was scheduled for eventual transfer elsewhere.

62. The Council was informed that negotiations with the Italian Government concerning certain proposals for improvements in the boundaries of the headquarters site had not yet produced a definite result. The Council noted with satisfaction the statements of the Italian delegation that final decisions were likely to be reached in the near future.

V. TRIBUTE TO MR. LOUIS MAIRE

63. At the close of the Session, the Council wished to convey its very deep appreciation and high regard for Mr. Louis Maire whose term of office as Independent Chairman of the Council had reached its end.

64. Not only had Mr. Maire discharged his duties with skill and efficiency, but he had played an invaluable role in reconciling diverging views and in promoting a sense of corporate unity within the Council. The Council members were unanimous in expressing their regret at the fact he was about to relinquish his very responsible post.

VI. DATE AND PLACE OF THE FORTY-SECOND SESSION OF THE COUNCIL

65. The Council decided to convene its Forty-Second (post-Conference) Session to be held at FAO headquarters on the first working day after the Twelfth Session of the Conference.
