Re: New IOC Recognition Procedure
Dear President,
In the framework of the new recognition procedure initiated in July 2003 by the IOC, you will recall that your Federation was approached between September and November 2003.
Through a process comprising several stages ( questionnaire, additional information, etcthe .), we were able to gather data, enabling the IOC to update the most important information concerning each federation to serve as the basis for analysis. Moreover, objective evaluation criteria allowed the IOC Sports department to examine the individual situation of each federation.
Following this phase - which took place at the end of 2003 - a report was produced and recommendations submitted to, and studied by, the Executive Board at its meeting of 18 May 2004.
An analysis of the data and criteria adopted enabled the Executive Board to take several types of decision, taking into account the specific circumstances of each federation.
* Therefore, sone federation will retain ( subject to validation by the Session in August 2004) their status as an IOC - Recognised Federation, given that they are in full compliance with all requirements. * For two federations, it will be proposed that the Session should grant full recognition, given that they currently have provisional recognition status and that they are in full compliance with all the requirements. * In four cases, the Executive Board has decided to grant recognition on certain conditions. * In two cases, the federation wil receive two-year provisional recognition, in conformity wit the Olympic Charter.
