Proposed new ICOMOS Rules of Procedure
The revised ICOMOS Statutes adopted in 2014 made the then current Rules of Procedure obsolete in many respects. Taking into account the resolution by the 2014 General Assembly, the ICOMOS Board is seeking to have an initial group of amended Rules of Procedure approved at the Annual General Assembly in Istanbul in October 2016, so that they can be in force for the next Triennial General Assembly in 2017. This first group includes the Rules of Procedure relating to General Assemblies, and those for bidding to host a General Assembly and for assessing the bids.
The Rules of Procedure now being proposed for adoption do not reflect the above mentioned amendments to the Statutes. The full set of Rules, which will be presented to the General Assembly for adoption in 2017, will need to reflect these amendments to the Statutes if they are adopted by the Extraordinary General Assembly in 2016.
