The Assembly,
Convinced that it is essential for the Council of Europe to have at its disposal the means of spreading information designed to foster a European spirit,
Recommends to the Committee of Ministers that a Joint Information Liaison Committee should be established forthwith which would assist the Secretariat-General in the preparation of the Information budget of the Council of Europe and would be available to advise the Secretariat-General on all questions concerned with information which were submitted to it, in particular those questions in respect of which the Secretariat-General did not consider that it should have the sole responsibility of decision.
The Joint Liaison Committee shall be composed of three members of the Committee of Ministers, and of three Representatives to the Assembly, among whom shall be included ex officio the Chairman and Rapporteur of the Committee on Cultural and Scientific Questions.
As far as possible the proposals which may be made by the Joint Liaison Committee shall be taken into account when the Information budget of the Council of Europe for 1953 is being prepared.
