MOTION RE: POSTPONEMENT OF CONSIDERATION OF INTERIM REPORT OF THE BASIC PRINCIPLES COMMITTEE

It is an invitation and an opportunity to those people to make concrete and definite suggestions with regard to the report as to which of its provisions are not in conformity with the Objectives Resolution and what are the reasons for their saying so.
