Report of Subcommittee on Credentials A subcommittee on credentials, comprising representatives from Bangladesh, Sri Lanka and Thailand was appointed. The Subcommittee met under the chairmanship of Prof. Mohammad Abul Kalam Azad (Bangladesh) and examined the credentials submitted by all Member States. The credentials submitted by nine Member States were found to be in order, thus entitling their representatives to take part in the work of the Regional Committee. Pending the arrival of the original credentials from Nepal and Timor-Leste, the Subcommittee recommended that their representatives be permitted to take part in the work of the Regional Committee and vote until such time as the Subcommittee on Credentials could reconvene to examine the credentials and report thereon to the Regional Committee. The Subcommittee on Credentials met on 9 September 2011 for the second time under the chairmanship of Prof. Dr Abul Kalam Azad of Bangladesh. It examined the credentials deposited by the Representatives of Nepal and Timor-Leste for the Sixty-fourth session of the Regional Committee. The credentials of the above-referenced Member States were found to be in order, thus entitling them to take part in the work of the Regional Committee. The Subcommittee, therefore, proposed that the Regional Committee recognize the validity of the credentials presented by the representatives of Nepal and Timor-Leste.
