STATEMENT MADE BY THE MOROCCAN DELEGATIO!! AT THE THIRTEENTH MEETING OF TBIl ECA CONFERENCE OF MINISTERS CONCERNING TBIl REPORT OF
THE EIGHTH MEETING OF THE CONFERENCE OF AFRICAN MINISTERS OF INDUSTRY HELD AT BUJUMBURA, BURUNDI,
FROM 17 TO 19 SEPTEMBER 1986
The Moroccan delegation recalls that the eighth meeting of the Conference of African Ministers of Industry held from 17 to 19 September 1986 at Bujumbura, Burundi, was organized by ECA and serviced in conjunction with UNIDO and OAU.
The delegation also recalls the deplorable circumstances in which that Conference was held and at which a so-called entity, not a member of the United Nations, participated, resulting in the withdrawal of the Moroccan delegation.
The delegation draws attention to the seriousness of this event and to the passive role played by ECA and UNIDO secretariats, both of which must respect United Nations rules of procedure.
The delegation of Morocco further deplores the lack of reference in the Conference's report to its withdrawal and the manoeuvring which enabled the so-called entity to participate in the work of the Conference.
consequently, the Moroccan delegation rej1cts the report of the eighth meeting of the Conference of African Ministers of Industry in its entirety together with the relevant resolution and requests the ECA and UNIDO secretariats to aSSUme their responsibility in this matter.
Furthermore, Morocco reserves the right to denounce within other United Nations fora, the circumstances and reporting previously alluded to and which constitute a precedent serious enough to compromise the credibility of the Organization.
Sgd. (RACHIDI GHAZOUANI) Head of the Moroccan delegation
