Detailed report of discussions

The Delayed contribution D.27 “Draft new chapter for the Handbook on IMT-2000”
is from Russian Federation.
< Discussion notes are in the version of this document behind TIES.>

TD 115 is a Liaison Statement from TSAG meeting (Geneva, 14-18 March 2005) on
the trial of public access to some SG 19 documents. Q.4 received one Delayed
contribution over the last two SG 19 meetings that was posted for public. This was
noted by meting participants. No difficulties were identified with this document.

TD 117 is a Liaison Statement from TSAG meeting (Geneva, 14-18 March 2005)
informing the group about the Work on Telecommunications for Disaster Relief and
Early Warning and an Action Plan and requesting reviewing the Work Programme,
enhance existing Action Plan for standardization on TDR & EW; adapt it and send
feedback to TSAG. The new Chapter on the emergency communications, reviewed
and adopted by the meeting under the agenda item 3 as D.27, was considered an
appropriate candidate for the inclusion into the list of SG 19 outputs of TDR and EW.

TD 180 is a Liaison Statement from ITU-T SG 11 informing the group about SG 11
Action plan in support of developing countries and of countries with economies in
transition. This document was for information. It was noted. The Rapporteur seconded
by the representative of Uganda emphasised the importance of the representatives of
developing countries to participate in the meetings and to contribute to the work,
bringing their needs and requirements to the SG 19.

TD 192 is a Liaison Statement from ITU-T SG16 informing the group about the SG16
action plan on work on TDR and EW. It was the response to the LS from TSAG as in
TD 117. It was noted.

TD 197 is a Liaison Statement from ITU-D Q.18/2 on guidelines for smooth transition
of existing mobile networks to IMT-200 for developing countries. The Rapporteur
pointed out with satisfaction the existing collaboration between the ITU-D Q.18/2 and
Q.4/19. The coming workshop in Kyiv, Ukraine, is also a good example of correlation
between Q.4 and ITU-D Q.18/2 work. Again the importance of the involvement of
developing countries representatives was raised by Rapporteur and delegate from
Uganda. The document was for information and it was noted by meeting participants.

TD 207 is a Liaison Statement from ITU-R WP 8F to ITU-D SG 2 on proposed
revisions to WTDC Resolution 43 “Assistance for implementing IMT-2000”. This
document was reviewed paragraph by paragraph by the meeting and the group felt
appropriate to propose the enhancements to the text of TD 207. A Liaison Statement
was drafted as a result of the discussions at the meeting. It is found in TD 228.

TD 179 is a SG19 Work Programme. The Q.4/19 portion of it was considered
appropriate and no changes were introduced to it.

TD 140 R1 is a chapter on fraud issues (for the second edition of the Handbook). It
was approved at the last meeting of Q.4/19. The meeting took note of this document.

During the discussion on any other business the Chairman, Mr Ghazal, proposed to
urge Rapporteurs of Q.1/19, Q.2/19, Q.3/19 and Q.5/19 to send materials from their
activities to Q.4/19 (Handbook) in order to start to develop different chapters for the
inclusion into the second Edition of Handbook on IMT-2000. Mr Ghazal also was
-4TD 229 (GEN/19) PUBLIC
wondering if the activities of Q.3/13 and Q.6/13 should be introduced in the
Handbook on the deployment of IMT-2000 systems.
