Geneva, December 2 to 20, 1996

AMENDMENTS TO ARTICLES 2, 3 AND 9 OF THE PARTLY CONSOLIDATED TEXT
OF DRAFT TREATY No. 1

proposed by the Delegation of the Russian Federation

In view of the fact that States and international organizations, but not separate customs territories, may become Contracting Parties to this Treaty, the Delegation of the Russian Federation proposes that paragraph (2) of Article 2 as currently drafted be amended as follows:

the rest of the text remaining unchanged.

In Article 3(1) delete the words "for purposes of applying the provisions of the Berne Convention," as they do not have any particular bearing on the text.

Replace the words "this obligation" in the last sentence of Article 9(2) with the phrase "the obligation referred to in paragraph (1)."
