The

mat-
ters,
to
a
new
study
of
the
problems
of
access
by
the
citizen
to
information
held
by
public
authorities
which
would
be
undertaken
by
the

Committee
on
Comparative
Adminis-
trative
Procedure
and
Processes
as
the
result
of
a
grant
from

formatics
and

Mention
was

a
special
meeting
which
could
lead
to
the
establishment
of
a
European
Group
of

which

The

welcomed
Mr.

1974..
The
Accounts
for
1972
presented
by
the
Treasurer
were
approved.
It
was
decided
that
the
two
Member
States
which
are
in
the
posi-
tion
provided
for
in
Article
36
of
the
Statutes
should
once
again
be reminded
of
their
unpaid
contributions.
National
Sections
in
the
same
position
would
also
be
reminded.
The
Committee
took
note
of
the
proposed
revision
of
the
Regulations
concerning
Member-
ship
Contributions
and
Subscriptions,
presented
by
the
Treasurer,
and
decided
that,
after
a
further
consultation,
the
question
should
be
placed
before
the
Council
of
Administration
at
its
next
session.
With
regard
to
the
Note
by
the
Director
General
on
the
Reorganization
of
IIAS,
the
Committee
decided,
after
thorough
discussion,
to
postpone
any
decision
until
its
thirty-eight
session.
It
requested
the
Ad
Hoc
Committee
on
the
Reorganization
of
IIAS,
set
up
in
1972
to
study
the
matter,
to
reconsider
its
con-
clusions,
particularly
with
regard
to
the
Stand-
ing
Committees.
Mr.
T.J.
Barrington
and
Mr.
A.R.
Brewer-Carias
were
asked
to
sit
on
the
Ad

Committee.
The

Nice
Colloquium,
11-13
April
1973
The
Colloquium
marked
an
important
stage
in
the
Group’s
work,
which
has
been
referred
to
in
our
Nos.2/1972,
page
225,
and
4/1972,
page
455,
and
fulfilled
all
its
promises.
The
participants,
who
represented
20
countries
and
6
international
organizations
determined
the
lines
on
which
research
and
investigations
in
progress
should
be
conducted.
Part
of
the
work
would
be
completed
at
the
XVIth
Inter-

Congress
of
Administrative
Sciences
to
be
held
at
Mexico
City
in
July
1974.
