30 November 1999

Sir,

I have the honour to refer to the IAEA's 2000 technical co-operation programme, which includes a Teaching Course on Radiotherapy Treatment Planning: Principles and Practices to be given in co-operation with the European Society for Therapeutic Radiology and Oncology (ESTRO) at the Centre of Education in Health Care, University Hospital Rotterdam, Rotterdam, Netherlands, from 13 to 17 February 2000. Informal agreement about the IAEA's and ESTRO's respective contributions has already been reached with ESTRO (see attached draft agreement which is now in the process of being signed by the two parties as well as the course announcement)1.

As the above-indicated teaching course will be held on Dutch territory, I hereby wish to beg your Government's consent for ESTRO and the IAEA to hold this course in Rotterdam. This consent would not imply any financial commitments for the Government of the Nether- lands, but I would request you to confirm your Government's agreement with the following arrangements which are customary for all the IAEA's training courses:

Privileges and Immunities

1. The Host Government will accord to the Agency its property, funds and assets, and to the officials of the Agency and the participants officially designated to attend the course 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 International Atomic Energy Agency which was accepted by the Host Government on 29 August 1963.

Visas

2. The Host Government will accord to the officials and participants mentioned above every facility necessary for the performance of their function in connection with the teaching course, including entering, remaining in and leaving the Netherlands. The Host 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.

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

Customs

4. The Host Government will facilitate customs formalities for those persons on entering and leaving the Netherlands.

Security

5. The Host 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 teaching course. 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.

Accept, Sir, the assurances of my highest consideration.
