Report of the Liberation Committee

CM/Res. 32 (III)

REPORT OF THE LIBERATION COMMITTEE

The Council of Minister meeting in its Third Ordinary Session in Cairo, U.A.R., from 13 to 17 July 1964,

Recalling the resolution on Decolonization adopted by the Conference of Heads of State and Government in Addis Ababa, in May 1963, and Resolution CM/Res. 15 (II) adopted by the Council at its Second Session in Lagos,

Having examined the report of the Co-ordinating Committee for the liberation of

Africa,

Noting with satisfaction the work so far accomplished by the Liberation Committee,

Noting further with satisfaction that the membership of OAU has increased,

Noting that some progress has been made by some nationalist liberation movements with the assistance of the Liberation Committee to establish common action fronts with a view to strengthening the effectiveness of their movements,

Regretting the continued existence of multiple rival liberation movements in the Territories under foreign domination in spite of the efforts of the Liberation Committee to reconcile them,

Considering that certain Member States have not yet paid their voluntary contributions for 1963 to the Special Liberation Fund,

Reaffirming the determination of Member States to continue by all means the struggle for the independence of the Territories under foreign domination,

Recommends to the First Session of the Assembly of Heads of State and Government that:

1. The Committee be maintained and that its membership be increased;
