Sir,

I have the honour to inform you that the Secretariat of the International Atomic Energy Agency is planning to hold an Advisory Group Meeting on “Trends and Developments in Labelled Biomolecules for Targeted Radiotherapy" on 7–10 October 1996. The purpose of the meeting is detailed in the enclosed information sheet. Nine persons from six countries and the Scientific Secretaries of the Agency, Mr. H. Vera Ruiz and Mr. D.V.S. Narasimhan of the Division of Physical and Chemical Sciences, are expected to attend the meeting.

Prof. Dr. Peter H. Cox (address: Dr. Daniel den Hoed Kliniek, Groene Hilledijk 301, 3075 EA Rotterdam; Tel. No. 010 439 1341; Fax No. 010 486 3357) has, on an informal basis, indicated his willingness to assist the Agency in holding this meeting at his Institute.

I have the honour to enquire whether your Government would wish to host the meeting in question, and if so, whether your Government would agree to make the following arrangements.

1. The Government of The Netherlands will accord to the Agency, its property, funds and assets and, to the officials of the Agency and participants officially designated to attend the meeting in their official capacities, and to members of the immediate families of such persons, the privileges and immunities contained in the Agreement on the Privileges and Immunities of the IAEA which was accepted by the Government on 29 August 1963.

2. The Government will accord to officials and participants mentioned above every facility necessary for the performance of their function in connection with the meeting, including entering, remaining in and leaving The Netherlands. The Government will issue any necessary visas as expeditiously as possible and, where the legislation of The Netherlands permits, free of charge. The Government, however, reserves the right to deny, irrespective of nationality, visas to individual participants for national security reasons. Annex A contains the list of Member States to be invited to participate.

The Agency will inform the Government promptly of all persons officially designated to attend the meeting. The Agency will also advise such persons to apply for visas, if necessary, in good time before the opening date of the meeting, and the Host Government is expected to issue such visas promptly so as to allow participants to attend the meeting.

3. The Government will facilitate customs formalities for those persons on entering and leaving The Netherlands.

4. The Government will make available to the Agency without charge, and for the entire duration of the meeting, premises and facilities adequate and appropriate for the meeting, as listed in Annex B. No interpretation will be required.

5. The Government will exercise reasonable care to ensure security on the premises in which the meeting takes place and to ensure the safety of the officials of the Agency and participants while on the premises of the meeting. The Government will take whatever steps may be reasonable in the circumstances to ensure such security and safety, including such supervision of the premises as may be warranted.

Should your Government wish to host the meeting in question, I would be grateful if you would inform me in writing of your Government's agreement on the above enumerated points as soon as possible so as to enable the Secretariat to proceed with timely arrangements.

Accept, Sir, the assurances of my highest consideration.
