Abstract :

The Plenipotentiary Conference, Dubai, 2018 (PP-18) recognized the need to streamline resolutions and invited Member States and Sector Members to revise WTDC Resolutions to streamline them with PP Resolutions where appropriate and required.
Considering that the Resolution 27 (Rev. Hyderabad, 2010) "Admission of entities or organizations to participate as associates in the work of the ITU Telecommunication Development Sector" has not been revised since 2010; that Resolution 71 (Rev. Buenos Aires, 2017) "Strengthening cooperation between Member States, Sector Members, Associates and Academia of the ITU Telecommunication Development Sector and the evolving role of the private sector in the ITU Telecommunication Development Sector" highlights the relevance and role of ITU-D Associates; and that the Resolution 27 in its operational part provides only mechanisms of their participation in the Sector, it is proposed to merge the Resolution 72 with the Resolution 27, to ensure the integrity of the text and holistic understanding of Sector Members, Associates and Academia role in ITU-D activities.
Thus, the Resolution 71 can be supplemented with provisions of Resolution 27 with further suppression of the Resolution 27.
