LETTER DATED 4 APRIL 1997 FROM THE PERMANENT OBSERVER

OF PALESTINE TO THE UNITED NATIONS ADDRESSED TO THE  

SECRETARY-GENERAL

With reference to the letter of the Chargé d'affaires a.i. of Israel to the Âé¶¹APP, addressed to you on 24 March 1997 (S/1997/249), I wish to emphasize that the Israeli representative has no authority whatsoever with regard to issues relating to the work of the Security Council of the Âé¶¹APP.  Those issues are decided by the members of the Council, and in this regard, there has been a clearly established practice.

I should be grateful if you would arrange to have the text of the present letter distributed as a document of the Security Council.

(Signed)  Nasser AL-KIDWA        

Permanent Observer of Palestine

to the Âé¶¹APP
