Original: English

For the United States of America, Canada and Australia:

The delegations from the above-mentioned States deeply deplore the approval by the 2010 Plenipotentiary Conference of the International Telecommunication Union of [Corrigendum 1 to Document 16(Add.6)-E] concerning Lebanon. This Resolution is simply inappropriate for consideration in the ITU. This Resolution deals with political issues that should be dealt with in other political arenas. The Resolution is inconsistent with the purposes of the Union set forth in Article 1 of the ITU Constitution and its adoption is inconsistent with the cause of a just, lasting and comprehensive peace in the Middle East. We also note that the Resolution was only approved after two rounds of voting by a minority of the delegations present with the majority of delegations abstaining. The above-mentioned delegations therefore disassociate from the decision adopting this Resolution and from the Resolution.

Accordingly, the United States of America reserves the right to make additional reservations or declarations at the time of deposit of its instruments of ratification of the amendments to the Constitution and the Convention (Geneva, 1992) which are adopted by the Plenipotentiary Conference (Guadalajara, 2010).

  The United States of America reiterates and incorporates by reference all reservations and declarations made at world administrative conferences and world radiocommunication conferences prior to signature of these Final Acts.

  The United States of America does not, by signature to or by any subsequent ratification of the amendments to the Constitution and Convention adopted by the Plenipotentiary Conference (Guadalajara, 2010), consent to be bound by the Administrative Regulations adopted prior to the date of signature of these Final Acts. Nor shall the United States of America be deemed to have consented to be bound by revisions of the Administrative Regulations, whether partial or complete, adopted subsequent to the date of signature of these Final Acts, without specific notification to the International Telecommunication Union of its consent to be bound.

• 2. The United States of America refers to its Statement 92 made at the Plenipotentiary Conference (Minneapolis, 1998) and states that it will interpret Resolution 99 (Rev.

• 2. The Government of the State of Israel refers to ITU Resolution 99 (Rev. Guadalajara, 2010) and states its position that the interpretation and application of this resolution by all concerned must be in accordance with and subject to any existing or future bilateral agreements or arrangements between Israel and the Palestinian side. Furthermore, Israel shall interpret and apply this resolution in accordance with and subject to applicable Israeli law.

• 3. The Government of the State of Israel refers to [Corrigendum 1 to Document 16(Add.6)-E] concerning Lebanon, and states its position that the ITU Plenipotentiary Conference is NOT the place to discuss and adopt proposals on matters of peace and border security. Israel further states that the Government of Lebanon has never filed any complaint to the Radiocommunication Bureau according to the Radio Regulations, which is the appropriate process in ITU to raise issues regarding interference or interruption to communication originating in another administration’s jurisdiction. Israel finds that the resolution was indeed politically motivated and had no place in the PP-10 Conference. The Israeli delegation therefore disassociates from the decision adopting this Resolution and from the Resolution.

• 4. The Government of the State of Israel reserves the right to amend the foregoing reservations and declarations and to make any further reservations and declarations it may consider necessary up to the time of depositing its instrument of ratification of the Final Acts of the Plenipotentiary Conference (Guadalajara, 2010).

MOD 165 PP-98 5 Wanneer een Lidstaat zijn contributieklasse kiest, mag hij deze niet verlagen met meer dan 15 procent van het aantal eenheden dat door de Lidstaat is gekozen voor het tijdvak voorafgaande aan de vermindering, afgerond tot het dichtstbijzijnde lagere aantal eenheden in de schaal, voor bijdragen van drie of meer eenheden; of met meer dan één contributieklasse, voor bijdragen lager dan drie eenheden. De Raad geeft de Lidstaat aan hoe deze vermindering over het tijdvak tussen de Plenipotentiaire Conferenties geleidelijk moet worden gerealiseerd. In geval van uitzonderlijke omstandigheden, zoals natuurrampen waarvoor internationale hulpprogramma’s nodig zijn, kan de Plenipotentiaire Conferentie evenwel een grotere verlaging van het aantal contributie-eenheden toestaan, wanneer een Lidstaat die heeft aangetoond dat hij zijn contributie niet langer in de oorspronkelijk gekozen klasse kan handhaven, daarom verzoekt
