The
Chairman-designate of the forthcoming World Radiocommunication Conference (WRC),
Mr. Festus Daudu, would address Commonwealth country representatives meeting in
London on 7 - 9 October 2015, ahead of the treaty
conference organised under the auspices of the International Telecommunication
Union, reports ITRealms.
WRC, ITRealms gathered has been slated for November 2 through 27, 2015
in Geneva, Switzerland.
A
press statement from Commonwealth Telecommunication Organisation (CTO) endorsed
by Marcel Belingue, quoted Mr. Daudu as reacting to the invitation thus:
“It is good to see that whilst there have been WRC
preparatory events held in each region, the CTO is also enabling consultations
to take place across regions by holding a Commonwealth
preparation event. This will no doubt contribute to securing
greater consensus on contentious issues when the international community meets
in Geneva,” Mr Daudu said.
Also
speaking, the CTO Secretary-General, Mr. Shola Taylor welcomed Mr Daudu’s
planned contribution to the London meeting.
“Seeking as much consensus among Commonwealth countries
from different regions ahead of WRC-15 is part of a greater coordination effort
by the CTO to ensure views and concerns from different regions are better
understood and more effectively addressed, and we are particularly honoured
that Mr Daudu will join our discussions next week,” Taylor
said.
Equally
confirmed to be at the London event is Aboubakar Zourmba who chaired the WRC
Conference Preparatory Meeting over the past four years.
ITRealms further gathered that the meeting hosted by the Commonwealth Secretariat, the
three-day London event would address a wide range of issues across a number of
sector interests.
Key
areas of the WRC-2015 include future availability of spectrum for mobile broadband
including the second digital dividend; the use of fixed-satellite services for
the control of unmanned aircraft; global flight tracking; earth stations on
mobile platforms; and other satellite regulatory issues. +Remmy Nweke (ITRealms)
