APPENDIX F
PROPOSALS BY THE BUREAU REGARDING THE EXPENSES OF THE
INTERGOVERNMENTAL COMMITTEE AND THEIR ALLOCATION 1
Adopted by the Committee on July 14 th , 1938
If, as at present anticipated, the Evian session of the Intergovernmental Committee closes
this week, the costs incurred which have been advanced by the French Government can
now be estimated to amount altogether to 16,000 Swiss francs. In detail this amount can
be roughly subdivided as follows:
Allowances paid to the League of Nations Secretariat for the staff put at the disposal of
the Intergovernmental Committee……………………………………12,000 Swiss francs.
Paper, stencils and roneo ink…………………………………………..1,500 “ “
Miscellaneous expenses (telephone and telegraph communications, liaison by motor-car
between Evian and Geneva,
etc.)………………………………………………………………………500 “ “
Minutes of plenary meetings and reports of the two Sub-Committees…2,000 Swiss francs
Total 16,000 “ “
In the invitation sent by the United States Government to the States attending the
Intergovernmental Committee at Evian, it was suggested that these costs should be
equitably apportioned. The Secretary-General accordingly suggests the application of the
League of Nations scale of allocation of expenditure; thus, each country in the
Intergovernmental Committee would assume responsibility for the same number of units
of expenditure as that allotted to it at the present time by the League Secretariat at
Geneva.
