Session
of
the
Executive
Committee
with
the
task
of
scrutinizing
the
appointment
of
a

After

imously
approved

pro-
posal
to

On

the
President
thanked
Mr.

for
his
con-
tribution
to
developing
the
activities
and
sphere
of
influence
of
the
IIAS
during
his
two
years
as
Director General.
’
The
Committee
then
heard
the
report
of
the
acting
Director
General,
which
focussed
on
four
principal
themes :
increasing
the
Institute’s
sphere
of
influence,
the
internationalization
of
its
personnel,
reorganization
of
its
per-
manent
services,
and
its
financial
position.
The
Committee
noted
the
arrangements
made
for
the
organizational
and
scientific
preparation
of
the
Tokyo
Round
Table.
It
decided
to
invite
representatives
from
Japan’s
neighbours
to
attend
the
Round
Table
as
observers.
The
Committe
approved
the
nomination
of
two
new
corporate
members
(see
below).
In
considering
the
financial
position
of
the
Institute,
the
Committee
took
note
of
and
approved
the
accounts
for
1981
prior
to
their
submission
to
the
Council
of
Administration.
It
granted
provisional
quittance
to
the
Trea-
surer
pending
final
approval.
The
Committee
allocated
a
further
BF
1,500,000
to
the
1982
Budget
to
cover
ex-
penses
incurred
in
the
programme
for
reform
and
computerization
of the
Institute’s
docu-
mentation.
The
Committee
also
heard
the
reports
by
the
chairmen
of
Standing
Committees.
Com-
menting
on
the
report
from
the
Editorial
Board
of
the &dquo;
Review &dquo;,
the
Committee
expressed
the
hope
that
special
issues
could
be
published
in
separate
English,
French
and
Spanish
ver-
sions
with
the
help
of
outside
financing.
It
approved
the
appointment
of
Mr.
Klaus
K6nig
to
the
Editorial
Board.
Under
Miscellaneous
business,
a
discussion
took
place
on
the
arrangements
for
publishing
a
quarterly
newsletter
covering
the
activities
of
the
IIAS,
its
study
and
research
groups
and
its
national
sections.
The
Executive
Com-
mittee
charged
the
Director
General
with
taking
the
final
decision
on
the
matters
discussed
after
a
cost
comparison
of
the
options
avail-
able.
The
Committee
took
a
number
of
purely
management
decisions,
and
agreed
to
hold
its
next
session
at
Tokyo
on
12
September
1982.
