AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE REPUBLIC OF THE PHILIPPINES AND THE WORLD HEALTH ORGANIZATION CONCERNING THE PROVISION OF CONSULTANT FOR A NUTRITION PROGRAMME

Reference: This Agreement is also published in VIII DFA TS No. 1, p. 130

Philippines 0107 B(l) 29 April 1969

Sir,

I have the honour to refer to your Government's request dated 1 March 1968 for a consultant in the field of nutrition for three months in 1970. I am happy to inform you that WHO is able to meet this request.

The terms of reference of this consultant will be as follows:

1. To assist the overall nutrition programme being developed by the Department of Health.

2. To study and advise on the teaching of nutrition in various schools of medicine, nursing and public health.

Particular emphasis is placed on the provisions of all available background documentation relative to the consultant's duties and on the provision of a Government counterpart to work with and assist the consultant during his assignment. It would be appreciated if the name of this counterpart could be communicated to the Regional Office at an early date.

The Basic Agreement concluded between your Government and the World Health Organization on 28 December 1950 will govern the implementation of this request and the respective obligations of WHO and the Government including, inter alia, provision of transport within the country and sec­retarial services, if required.

Without prejudice to the generality of the following paragraph, the Government shall insure WHO, its advisers, agents, and employees for civil liabil­ity under the laws of the country in respect of any vehicles provided for use in meeting this request.

If you find these proposals acceptable, you are invited to sign five copies of this letter. Three are for use of your Government; the remaining copies should be returned to this office.

I have the honour to be
Sir,
Your obedient Servant,

(Sgd.) FRANCISCO J. DY, M.D.
Regional Director

FOR THE GOVERNMENT OF
THE PHILIPPINES:

(Sgd.) JOSE D. INGLES
Acting Secretary of Foreign Affairs

Date: 9 September 1969
