Abstract :

Council Resolution 1380 containing the WRC-19 agenda, as well as the dates and venue for the World Radiocommunication Conference (WRC-19) and for the Radiocommunication Assembly (RA-19), was the object of a consultation with the membership and received the agreement of the majority of the Member States of ITU.
In view of the Arab Republic of Egypt's expression of interest to host the WRC?19 on the dates proposed in Resolution 1380, the BR communicated to the Administration of Egypt the ITU requirements for hosting RA-19 and WRC-19. The Administration of Egypt has indicated its commitment to meet ITU's minimum requirements to organize RA-19 and WRC-19 in Sharm El-Sheikh, on the dates set forth in Resolution 1380.
This document also contains a brief status report on the ITU-R preparations for WRC-19.
