ASIAN BROADCASTING UNION OFFICE OF THE SECRETARY.GENERAL 203 CASTLEREACH ST SYDNEY TELEPHONE si TAOS POSTAL ADDRESS: S»0 BOX 3636 SYDNEY 2001 23 September, 1969. TO; ABU MEMBERS PROGRAMME COMMITTEE - AGENDA ABU members have received from the President of the ABU the agenda for the meeting of the Programme Committee which is to be held in Sydney next month. The agenda had been prepared in accordance with the ABU Statutes which include the requirements that; (a) agenda items proposed by ABU members must reach the ABU Secretariat 11 weeks before the beginning of the meeting; (b) the agenda must be sent to members to reach them not less than 8 weeks beofre the beginning of the meeting. After the agenda had been issued, we were advised by the Turkish Radio and Television Corporation (TRT) that they wish to put forward two proposals for consideration by the Programme Committee. Unfortunately TRT had not been able to send these agenda items 11 weeks before the meeting, as required by the Statutes, owing to various problems in their own organisation. Clause 2 of Article 10 of the Statutes states that; ?, No decision may be taken by the General Assembly on any subject not on the agenda unless consent is obtained from not less than half of the full members present or represented,” It would therefore be possible for the two items proposed by TRT to be con¬ sidered at the meeting of the Programme Committee provided that this is approved, at the beginning of the meeting, in accordance with the Clause quoted above, I am therefore advising members about these two agenda items, subject to approval being given for them to be added to the agenda for the Programme Committee as follows: 10, Outstanding Living Composers in ABU Region 11. Exchange of the Popular Songs of Countries in ABU Region I am attaching copies of two reports from TRT explaining these proposals.
