ABSTRACT

The Committee presented its first report on the implications of the international debt crisis to the 61st Conference held in Paris in 1984, which requested the Committee to report again with a view to providing an overview of relevant legal, monetary and procedural considerations, as well as possible recommendations. The Committee has continued its consideration of this important and topical subject at its meetings in Brussels in December 1985 and in Paris in April 1986. Several members of the Committee have also published individual studies dealing with various aspects of the subject matter 2 It should be noted also that the Committee on the Legal Aspects of the New International Economic Order in February 1986 co-sponsored a symposium in Fribourg, Switzerland, on the international debt problem.
