Extract

The eleventh session of the Economic and Social Council met in Geneva, Switzerland, from July 9 to August 16, 1950. The governments of the Soviet Union, Poland and Czechoslovakia communicated to the Council their refusal to participate in the session in view of the presence of the “representative of the Kuomintang group,” although the Polish representative attended meetings of the Agenda Committee where he sought unsuccessfully to delete from the agenda the consideration of reports of those committees and commissions of the Council covering sessions in which the representatives of the Nationalist Chinese government had participated. Of the 51 items included on the provisional agenda of the session, the Agenda Committee recommended action on all but one, allegations concerning the infringement of trade union rights, an item which was submitted to the International Trade Organization for consideration.
