Decision ID: 002837

In April 2002 the 1971 Fund Administrative Council decided that it should continue to administer the 1971 Fund, and also decided, in the interest of clarity, to amend paragraph 7 (a) of 1971 Fund Resolution No.13 through the adoption of a new Resolution (1971 Fund Resolution No.15) to the effect that decisions of the Administrative Council should be taken by majority vote of all States having at any time been Members of the 1971 Fund present and voting, provided that, in respect of issues relating to incidents, States should have the right to vote only as regards incidents which occurred when the State in question was a Member of the 1971 Fund.
