I also understand that if there is sufficient response from the various Inter American central banks, the Institute expects to set up a permanent financial committee (made up largely of representatives of the central banks) to help develop and guide a program in financial statistics which would reflect the viewpoints and needs of the central banks. It is understood, however, that this program will not conflict with the work of the Organization of Central Bank Technicians, but that the programs of the two organizations would be complementary. "It is understood that the membership dues for all central banks are $200 and that memberships registered . cluring the first six months of 1949 will become effective 11'flmediately but that dues received during this period will be applied to the fiscal year July 1, 1949-June 30, 1950. It is also understood that as an affiliated member we are entitled to representation in the I.A.S.I. and I therefore designate Mr. David Grove of the Division of Research and Statistics as the Board's representative." Approved unanimously. Secretary.
