Abstract :

In order to prevent the deterioration of projects, especially for developing countries, the contribution contains proposals:
? to suppress the Resolution 1111 (C-1997) "TELECOM surplus funds";
? to continue efforts to preserve and replenish the EWCF even after the refusal to host the ITU Telecom event, since the EWCF is an important source for the formation of the ITU ICT Development Fund (I?T-DF) and is formed (in accordance with Article 19 of the Financial Regulations and Financial Rules ) not only at the financial results of the ITU Telecom event;
? to amend the text of the ITU Financial Regulations and Financial Rules,
as well as contribution contains the request to the Secretariat to prepare an information document for Member States so that on its basis could be revised the Resolution 1338 (C-11) "Information and Communication Technologies Development Fund (ICT-DF)" or could be developed a new ITU Council resolution, to continue efforts, aimed at improving the quality of projects financed in whole or in part by ICT-DF.
