1、 International Telecommunication Union ITU-T TELECOMMUNICATION STANDARDIZATION SECTOR OF ITU WORLD TELECOMMUNICATION STANDARDIZATION ASSEMBLY Johannesburg, 21-30 October 2008 Resolution 22 Authorization for TSAG to act between WTSAs FOREWORD The International Telecommunication Union (ITU) is the Uni

2、ted Nations specialized agency in the field of telecommunications, information and communication technologies (ICTs). The ITU Telecommunication Standardization Sector (ITU-T) is a permanent organ of ITU. ITU-T is responsible for studying technical, operating and tariff questions and issuing Recommen

3、dations on them with a view to standardizing telecommunications on a worldwide basis. The World Telecommunication Standardization Assembly (WTSA), which meets every four years, establishes the topics for study by the ITU-T study groups which, in turn, produce Recommendations on these topics.

5、ld Telecommunication Standardization Assembly (Johannesburg, 2008), considering a) that, under the provisions of Article 14A of the ITU Convention, the Telecommunication Standardization Advisory Group (TSAG) is to provide guidelines for the work of study groups and recommend measures to foster coord

6、ination and cooperation with other standards bodies; b) that the rapid pace of change in the telecommunication environment and in industry groups dealing with telecommunications demands that the ITU Telecommunication Standardization Sector (ITU-T) make decisions on matters such as work priorities, s

7、tudy group structure and meeting schedules in shorter periods of time, between world telecommunication standardization assemblies (WTSA), in order to maintain its relevance and responsiveness; c) that Resolution 107 (Marrakesh, 2002) of the Plenipotentiary Conference considers that there is an urgen

8、t need to ensure efficient ITU operations within the constraints of limited human and financial resources; d) that Resolution 122 (Rev. Antalya, 2006) of the Plenipotentiary Conference resolves that WTSA shall continue, in accordance with its responsibilities, and subject to available financial reso

9、urces, to promote the continued evolution of the standardization sector and adequately address strategic issues in standardization by means such as, but not limited to, the strengthening of TSAG; e) that Resolution 122 (Rev. Antalya, 2006) instructs the Director of the Telecommunication Standardizat

10、ion Bureau (TSB) to consider, in consultation with relevant bodies, and the ITU membership, and in coordination with the ITU Radiocommunication Sector and the ITU Telecommunication Development Sector, where appropriate, organizing a worldwide standardization round table and coordination meeting, pos

12、for enhancing the operational efficiency of ITU-T, for improving the quality of ITU-T Recommendations and for methods of coordination and cooperation; h) that TSAG can help improve coordination of the study process and provide improved decision-making processes for the important areas of ITU-T activ

13、ities; i) that flexible administrative procedures, including those related to budgetary considerations, are needed in order to adapt to rapid changes in the telecommunication environment; j) that it is desirable for TSAG to act in the four years between WTSAs in order to meet the needs of the market

15、ng coordination between study groups, as appropriate, on standardization issues including, as required, avoiding duplication of work, and identifying linkages and dependencies between related work items; m) that TSAG, in providing advice to study groups, may take account of the advice of other group

16、s, noting a) that Article 13 of the ITU Convention states that a WTSA may assign specific matters within its competence to TSAG indicating the action required on those matters; b) that the duties of WTSA are specified in the Convention; c) that the current four-year cycle for WTSAs effectively precl

17、udes the possibility of addressing unforeseen issues requiring urgent action in the interim period between assemblies; d) that TSAG meets at least on a yearly basis; e) that TSAG has already exhibited the capability to act effectively, on matters assigned to it by WTSA, recognizing that the Plenipot

20、; c) restructure and establish ITU-T study groups and assign chairmen and vice-chairmen to act until the next WTSA in response to changes in the telecommunication marketplace; d) issue advice on study group schedules to meet standardization priorities; e) while recognizing the primacy of the study g

21、roups in carrying out the activities of ITU-T, create, terminate or maintain other groups, including focus groups, appoint their chairmen and vice-chairmen, and establish their terms of reference with a defined duration, in accordance with Nos. 191A and 191B of the Convention, in order to enhance an

23、 other groups, and implement those that are agreed; g) establish the appropriate mechanism and encourage the utilization, for example, of coordination groups or other groups, to address key topics of work which span several study groups, with a view to ensuring effective coordination of standardizat
