ASSISTANCE TO THE REPUBLIC np THE CONGO (CAPITAL, LEOPOLWILLE)
Report by the Director-General
1 . Introduction
1.1 On l8 July the Director-General received a cable from the Secretary-General
of the United Nations informing him that the health situation in the Republic of
the Congo (capital, Leopoldville) was rapidly deteriorating and that the Secretary-
General "should be most grateful for anything that WHO can do to help in this
emergency"; on 20 July the Director-General received two further cables from the
Secretary-General in which the latter gave the Director-General further information
on the health situation as reported by the personal representative of the
Secretary-General and "strongly u r g e ^ / that everything possible be done by WHO,
acting with international Red Cross, to initiate immediate crash programme to meet
minimum public health needs". In response to these requests, the Director-General
promised the fullest possible assistance. The Regional Director for Africa and
members of his staff were in consultation with the representative of the Secretary-
General in Leopoldville regarding the emerging health needs of the Congo from
17 July onwards. ."“
1.2 The Security Council of the United Nations on 22 July i960 adopted a
resolution (S/4405 - attached as Annex 1) regarding the Republic of the Congo
(capital, Leopoldville) in which, inter alia, the Council invited "the specialized
agencies of the United Nations to render to the Qeoretary-Generai such assistance
as. he may require".
1 I n accordance with Article VII of the Agreement between the United Nations
and the World Health Organization, "the World Health Organization agrees to
co-operate with the /Security/ Council in furnishing such information and rendering
such assistance for the maintenance or restoration of international peace and
EB26/3 Add.2 page 2
security as the Security Council may request"• Pursuant to the request of the
Secretary-General to provide assistance as a matter of urgency in co-ordinating the
re-establishment and maintenance of minimum health services in the Republic of the
Congo, the Director-General has taken action to provide assistance by the World Health
Organization to the greatest extent possible•
1•斗 The Director-General wishes to inform the Board of the role which WHO, at the
request of the United Nations> has played to date in this undertaking and to present
for the consideration of the Board certain issues with respect to WHO'S future
responsibilities in this area. The further developments which take place between
the issue of the document and the opening of the Board's twenty-sixth session will be
reported by addendum to this document.
2• Action taken to inform the Board and request its assistance
2.1 The Director-General informed the members of the Executive Board on 22 July of
the situation, and in a letter dated 28 July he invited the members of the Board to
approve the establishment of a "Special Account for Assistance to the Congo" as a
sub-account of the Voluntary Fund for Health Promotion established by the Thirteenth 2
World. Health Assembly in resolution Copies of both letters are attached
(Annexes 2 and У).
2.2 All members of the Board have, by correspondence^ expressed their approval of
the establishment of the sub-account as well as delegating authority to the Chairman
of the Board to accept contributions to the Account. This Special Account for
Assistance to the Congo is intended to facilitate the acceptance of any offers of
assistance which might be made by the Members of the Organization•

The Director-General> immediately upon receipt of the request for assistance,
detached from their regular duties and sent to Leopoldville a number of staff
members qualified in various aspects of public health and on 22 July Dr Kaul,
Assistant Director-General# arrived in Leopoldville as the personal representative
of the Director-General. Additional staff were temporarily assigned to the Congo
as the needs emerged and recruitment of other staff was begun during the last days
of July.
The Director-General also appealed to the League of Red Cross Societies and
the International Committee of the Red Cross to undertake the recruitment of
emergency medical care teams from the national Red Cross Societies• Appeals have
been despatched jointly by the two Red Cross organizations, beginning on 2J> July,
to 55 such societies, most of which responded promptly and affirmatively.
D In addition, certain governments despatched emergency medical care teams to
the Congo by direct arrangement with the Government of the Republic of the Congo.
3.4 By agreement with the United Nations, the Red Cross organizations and the
Ministry of Health of the Republic of the Congo, WHO was given the co-ordinating
responsibility, through the Ministry of Health, for all international personnel
concerned with the health of the civilian population, irrespective of origin. This
responsibility includes inter alia reception, briefing, assignment, etc.
5.5 The staff involved in the assistance provided or planned to be provided in the
field of health, by WHO, by the Red Cross organizations and by certain governments on
a "bilateral" basis, as at 1 September, is shown in Annex 4 .
3.6 Questions as to future relationships, requirements and financing are still
under consideration, as indicated in the letter from the Secretary-General of 10 August
and its attachment (Annex 5)•

LETTER ADDRESSED B Y THE DIRECTOR-GENERAL
TO MEMBERS OP THE EXECUTIVE BOARD
0 1 Д 8 0 Д 1 Congo 22 July I 9 6 0
I have been informed by the Secretary-General that the Security Council of the
United Nations last night unanimously adopted the enclosed resolution relating to
the situation in the Congo.1
The Agreement between the Itoited Nations and the World Health Organization
includes, inter alia, the following:
"Article VII - Assistance to the Security Council"
"The World Health Organization agrees to co-operate with the Council in
furnishing such information and rendering such assistance for the maintenance
or restoration of international peace and security as the Security Council may
request."
The Secretary-General has stated: "I look forward to co-operation with you
for the aims of the decision and will inform you about such initiatives from your
side as may seem indicated in support of the Itoited Nations action."
The Secretary-General of the United Nations had previously informed me that
the health situation in the Congo was rapidly deteriorating and that re-establish-
ment of the minimum health services was a matter of urgency; he requested the
assistance of the World Health Organization in meeting this emergency. I had
assured the Secretary-General that the World Health Organization is prepared to
provide fullest possible assistance.
Earlier this week, we arranged for some public health staff to be sent to
Leopoldville and Dr Kaul, Assistant Director-General, arrived in Leopoldville this
morning as my personal representative there. We are also working closely with the
International Committee of the Red Cross and the League of Red Cross Societies.
We are now attempting to clarify exactly what is required, so that we can take
action to meet this emergency. I am informing all members of the Executive Board
of this situation, and will inforra you further should it become necessary to request
the Board to take any action.

ANNEX 3
LETTER ADDRESSED BY THE DIRECTOR-G腿RAL
TO MEMBERS OP THE EXECUTIVE BOARD
GI/I80/LI Congo 28 July I960
Please refer to my letter to you of 22 July i960 concerning the emergency assistance which the World Health Organization has been requested to provide in the Congo. Since that letter was dispatched I hare received some clarification of the requirements for meeting the emergency, and it is apparent that teams to provide medical care are urgently needed, and possibly some supplies and equipment may be needed later. The Red Cross, Red Lion and Sun and Red Crescent Societies in a number of countries have offered teams in response to an appeal from the International Committee of the Red Cross and the League of Red Cross Societies; WHO has been asked by the Minister of Health of the Congo to be responsible for co-ordinating all public health and medical care assistance.
I have also been informed that considerably more assistance in the form of teams is likely to be needed, which the World Health Organization will be requested to arrange• I have reason to believe that at least some governments are prepared to offer the World Health Organization funds, as well as personnel and supplies and equipment to meet these needs » In order to be in a position readily to accept offers of such assistance, it is desirable that the Executive Board establish a Special Account for Assistance to the Congo, which it is authorized to do by the terms of the resolution of the Thirteenth World Health Assembly, "Amalgamation of Special Accounts into a Single Fund" (Resolution paragraphs 1, (2) ( e ) -
copy attached)^ By the terms of the same resolution, the Executive Board is authorized to accept contributions to any of the sub-accounts • • • and to delegate this authority to the Chairman of the Executive Board between sessions of the Board, provided the Director-General has determined that the contribution can be utilized in the programme。” In this situation, only specified personnel, supplies and equipment and convertible currencies would be immediately usable•
It is formally proposed that the Executive Board agree (1) to establish the Special Account for Assistance to the Congo, and (2) to delegate authority to the Chairman of the Executive Board to accept contributions to this Special Account. In view of the urgency of the situation, will you please inform me by cable of your approval or otherwise of this proposal•

Enclosed please find a memorandum regarding the basio approach to the civilian activities of the IMited Nations in the Congo.

SECOND REPORT BY THE SECRETARY-GENERAL ON THE IMPLEMENTATION OP SECURITY COUNCIL RESOLUTIONS
S A 5 8 7 OF 14 JULY I960 AND S A 4 0 5 OP 22 JULY i960
Addendum No. 5
Memorandum by the Secretary-General on the organization of the United Nations Civilian Operation ” ~ ~ ~ — " i n the Republic of the Congo
When the Security Council adopted its resolutions on the United Nations operation
in the Congo, it conceived the civilian part of the operation and the military part as
interrelated and mutually supporting elements of the assistance. The essential and
long-term contribution would be in the civilian field, but it required the establish-
ment of order and security. For that reason, the United Nations Force was organized
and sent to the Congo pending the reorganization of the national army and police at
the same time as steps were taken for the building up of a large-scale civilian
assistance activity. The Security Council reflected the latter element of its
approach and the basic unity of the operation in its resolution of 22 July i960 when
it invited "the specialized agencies of the №iited Nations to render to the Secretary-
General such assistance as he may require".
The basic and necessary unity of the civilian and military operations and the
ensuing necessity for a centralized organization and leadership within the United
Nations family naturally in no way detracts from the authority and competence of the
specialized agencies. It does, however, introduce a factor which the specialized
agencies may be expected to take into account in their own planning; at the same time
UNITED NATIONS
SECURITY COUNCIL
6O-I9277
EB26/3 Add.2 page 2
Annex 5
the resolution, quoted above, adds a new obligation for the specialized agencies to
render assistance to the №iited Nations as requested; this follows from the fact
that the Security Council decision under Chapter VII of the Charter is mandatory in
relation to governments, and therefore necessarily mandatory also in relation to
governmental organizations.
As regards the development of the civilian activities, they can be based on the
traditional pattern and methods of technical assistance and the Operational and
Executive Personnel programme (ОРЕХ)身 but they must go further• The United Nations
must in the situation now facing the Congo go beyond the time-honoured forms for
technical assistance in order to do what is necessary, but it has to do it in forms
which do not in any way infringe upon the sovereignty of the country or hamper the
speedy development of the national administration•
The formula suggested, approved by the Government of the Republic of the Congo
and, in part, already implemented, is the following• A distinction is made between,
on the one side, technical assistance proper, which is in principle on a technical
and advisory level, with the experts having the normal relationship to the national
Government and national administration, and, on the other side, activities on a level
of higher administrative responsibility, for which the experts employed must receive
a new and so far untried status•
This latter group, if introduced into ministries and administrations in a way-
accepted for regular technical assistance, might lead to misunderstandings or to a
slowing down of the growth of the national administration and false assumptions of
responsibilities. The experts, chosen for the task and forming the group, will be
attached to the Chief of the United Nations Civilian Operation, Dr Sture Linner (who
is also TA Resident Representative)# as his consultants, with each one having his own
and specific administrative responsibility for all activities within the range of his
expertise•
Thus, the Chief of the civilian activities - who in rank and authority will be
the opposite number to the Supreme Commander of the United Nations Force as Chief of
the military activities - will have at his disposal, and be the Chairman of, a
"Consultative Group" composed of the senior experts with the responsibilities outlined
above in relation to the technical assistance operations in the various fields which
are covered by their respective activities.
EB26/3 Add.2 page 2
Annex 5
The members of the Consultative Group, the status of which has just been
defined, would carry the title of Consultants to the Chief of the Civilian Operation•
They would, however.» in accordance with a promise given to the Government, be
available at the call of the Government to give advice on various problems and provide
the Government with such studies as it may request for the planning of its activities
and its decisionsa
Thus,, the Consultants, without being accredited to the ministries and having
formally functions only within the United Nations orbit, would de facto be able to
serve, with senior responsibility^ at the request of the Government, the various
ministries and departments• But - and that has to be repeated - they will fulfil
the latter function on an ad hoc basis and at the specific request of the Governments
After consultaticns with the Government of the Congo it has been decided that
the following fields will have to be covered by the Consultants, members of the
Consultative Groups
1 , Agriculture
2。 С ommuni с at i oris
3• Education
斗, Finance
5• Foreign trade
6 . Health
7華 Instruction (national security forces)
89 Labour market
9» Magistrature
10» Natural resources and industry
11. Public administration
It will be observed that in this list certain areas are within the responsibility
of one or more specialized agencies• Thus, agriculture corresponds to the field of
the Pood and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (PAO), communications
corresponds to the field of the International Telecommunication Union (ITU), the №ii灣
veral Postal Union (UTU), the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) and the
EB26/3 Add.2 page 2
Annex 5
World Meteorological Organization (WMO) and education to the field of the United
Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO). Health
corresponds to the field of the World Health Organization (WHO) and finally, labour
market corresponds to tiie field of activity of the International Labour Organisation
(XLO). In addition, finance, in part, is a field in which consultations are carried
on with the International Bank for Reconstruction and Development (IBRD) and the
International Monetary Fund (IMP)• In the other cases, the activities are exclusively
within the field of the United Nations itself.
In order to organize this administrative system in a way which fully reflects
the constitutional situation and, thus, avoids any interference with the activities
of the specialized agencies or infringement upon their competence, while reflecting
their added responsibilities, the following line has been chosen.
The specialized agency concerned appoints a local representative of such
seniority as to correspond to the duties which he will have in the field, taking fully
into account, on the one side, the scope of the operation, on the other side his
senior responsibilities as adviser to the Government at its request. Naturally, the
local representative appointed by the specialized agency remains in the regular
relationship to his agency and under its authority. Such representatives have already
been appointed in several cases and that has in all cases been done in consultation
with the United Nations. The Secretary-General, in turn, appoints the local
representative of the specialized agency as consultant and member of the Consultative
Group, thus adding to the representative's normal responsibilities, providing for full
integration with the other activities and reflecting in an adequate form the basic
unity of the total operation. In cases where several agencies are concerned, the
appointments have been made by the United Nations in close consultation with the agencies
The activities of the specialized agencies will profit from the fact that they
can act under the security provided by the United Nations Force and use the services
provided by the United Nations administration and the United Nations communication
system and, finally, seek guidance from the head of the whole United Nations operation
in the Congo, who has the position of political adviser and personal representative
of the Secretary-General; naturally such consultation should take place through the
Chief of the Civilian Operation. These advantages obviously add a further reason for
the administrative arrangements to which reference has just been made.
EB26/3 Add.2 page 2
Annex 5
The Secretary-General has been approached by the Government of the Republic of
the Congo with a request for assistance at the earliest possible moment for the
establishment of plans for its administrative and economic activities. Special stress
has been put on the problem of unemployment. The Secretary-General has, likewise,
been approached by a number of Member Governments with requests for early indication
of the needs for technical assistance experts in the various fields with specification
as to number and qualifications. These requests indicate a first major task of the
Consultative Group, under the chairmanship of the Chief of the civilian activities.
It is to be hoped that the Group can start its work early next week.
The Secretary-General is reluctant to embark on a diffuse programme whose
effectiveness would be doubtful until the Consultative Group has had an opportunity
to advise on what is wanted. A number of appointments were necessary to cope with
the emergency and these have been, or are being, made. These apart, it is desirable
to follow as orderly a course as possible and the Consultative Group will give its
first attention to setting up necessary surveys and working teams to report to it.
A H posts approved by the Secretary-General will be financed from United Nations
funds, This would, of course, not preclude the specialized agencies from financing
activities under their regular programmes. It is assumed) however, that such
projects would first be the subject of consultation with the Chief of the United
Nations Civilian Operation in the Congo and would be co-ordinated with the total
programme outlined by the Government of the Republic of the Congo.
Ordinarily, the procedure will be that, subject to due approval by, or consulta-
tion with, the Government of the Republic of the Congo, the Secretary-General will
sanction a number of posts in specified areas of activity; the specialized agencies
will then proceed to recruit, contract with and pay personnel against reimbursement by
the United Nations. Until the situation is clearer, the United Nations policy is to
grant initial contracts for outside experts only on a short-term basis, namely six
months as a maximum. Conditions of service will be in accordance with the rules
applicable to technical assistance personnel.
EB26/5
page 25
Annex 5
•Rie United Nations will reimburse the specialized agencies on the basis of
their "extra costs" in respeot of all seconded agency staff and technical assistance
experts employed by the agencies in posts approved by the United Nations to
participate in the United Nations Congo operation on the following basis:
1 . The United Nations will reimburse the agencies for salaries and related
costs in respect of any temporary assistance staff required to be employed as
replacements for the agencies' regular staff assigned to the Congo.
2 . The United Nations will reimburse the agencies for salaries and related
costs in respect of all agreed technical assistance experts employed specifically
to participate in the United Nations Congo operation.
3. The United Nations will reimburse the agencies for transportation and
travel subsistence costs incurred in connexion with travel to and from the
Republic of the Congo for their seconded regular staff and technical assistance
experts, but not for any dependants of such personnel.
4 . The United Nations will reimburse the agencies for any extra costs they may
incur in connexion with death, disability or illness to their staff members and
technical assistance employed in the Congo operation.
United Nations financial responsibility must be limited to the costs in connexion
with posts for which it has given advance agreement. United Nations agreement will
stipulate the number of posts authorized and may indicate the approximate grade and
level contemplated.
The Chief Administrative Office of the United Nations Force in the Congo (ONUC)
will provide all administrative services for such personnel, including payment of emolu-
ments and allowances payable in the Republic of the Congo.

Provisional agenda Item 3.1
ASSISTANCE TO THE REPUBLIC OF THE CONGO (LEOPOLDVILLE)
Report by the Director-General
The following additional developments have taken place with regard to assistance
to the Republic of the Congo (Leopoldville) since the issuance of document EB2ó/s.
The Director-General replied on JO September to the letter from the Secretary-
General of 10 August, which together with its attachment was annexed to document
EB26/9 as Annex 5. The letter of the Director-General is attached as Annex 1 of
this document.
It had been the expectation that by mid-autumn the Republic of the Congo would
be in a position to recruit directly, with the assistance of WHO, the foreign health
personnel necessary to maintain the health services of the country. In view of the
continuing instability in the political situation, this.expectation was not realized,
and since the medical care teams provided to the Congo by the Red Cross and certain
governments directly were recruited on an emergency limited-term basis, further
action was required to assure the continuance of health services in the country.
At the request of WHO, the international Red Cross and the League of Red Cross
Societies on 7 October appealed to the national societies having teams in the Congo
either to extend the terms of these teams for an additional several months or to
agree to replace them by other teams. To date, most of the national societies have
responded affirmatively. Pending the time when the Government of the Congo will be
prepared to issue contracts itself for personnel, the United Nations authorized WHO
to recruit directly, under normal WHO employment conditions, but chargeable to the
United Nations Congo Fund, health personnel to be seconded to the Government of the
Republie of the Congo as operational personnel to assist in the maintenance of the
health services of the country. In addition a few supporting administrative staff
will be needed. The numbers and types of personnel to be recruited are as follows:
EB26/9 Add.l page 10
Group 1 5 General Surgeons
5 Senior Physicians with tropical experience 60 District Medical Officers

ANNEX 1
Gl/180/11 Congo 30 September i960
Dear Mr Hammarskjold,
This will acknowledge your letter of 10 August i960, by which you transmitted to me a memorandum (Document s/4417, Add.5) regarding your basic approach to the civilian activities in the Congo. I have delayed ray reply until I had the advantage of a further first-hand look at the situation in the Congo.
I note from your letter that it is your intention fully to safeguard the interests
and constitutional rights of the specialized agencies, and I am, of course, in full
agreement that this is essential.
I have further noticed from the minutes of the Security Council that the subject matter of document s / ^ 1 7 , Add.5, while being presented to the Council, is expected to be dealt with by the General Assembly. I take it for granted, for that as well as other reasons, that it is still open for discussion and for revision as necessary in the light of developments. I am not as yet in a position to comment specifically on the various points, because the situation in the Congo is still so fluid and comment would therefore be premature. However, I can inform you that I have no reason to disagree with your proposal that the United Nations reimburse the specialized agencies on the basis of the "extra costs" to the agencies.
I would like to make clear the basis on which 工 have been able to respond to your requests for assistance. Prom the outset, it should be understood that under its Constitution the World Health Organization has the responsibility to render assistance to the Congo, upon request of the Congo, and the World Health Assembly has laid down specific conditions under which such assistance shall be provided. I note that activities of this nature are referred to in general terms in your document. The additional factor, under which WHO is able to provide assistance to the Congo, is the 22 July resolution of the Security Council which, by its paragraph 4, has the effect of invoking Article VII of the Agreement between the United Nations and the World Health Organization. Article VII of the Agreement explicitly lays down the responsibility of the World Health Organization to "cooperate with the Council in . . . rendering such assistance for the maintenance or restoration of international peace and security as the Security Council may request". That Article of the Agreement has been щ authority for responding to the invitation in the resolution of the Security Council of 22 July i960 and to your own requests. Thus, it is not necessary for WHO to rely on any implicit authority, as suggested in the last sentence of the second paragraph of your document, since explicit authority exists.
Mr D . Hammarskjold Secretary-General United Nations New York, N.Y. United States of America
БВ26/9 Add^l page 4
Annex 1
Article XVI of the Agreement between the United Nations and the World Health Organization further provides that "In the event of the World Health Organization being faced with the necessity of incurring substantial extra expense as a result of any request which the United Nations may make for • • • assistance in accordance with Articles • • • VII • • • consultation shall take place with a view to determining the roost equitable manner in which such expense shall be borne". I arranged for Mr Milton P . Siegel, Assistant Director-General, to go to New York early in August for the purpose of initiating the consultations required by that Article of the Agreement, and he has reported fully to me on the preliminary consultations which he had with members of your staff
#
I am sure you recognize that we have done our utmost adequately to meet your request to assume responsibility for providing or obtaining the urgent and extensive help needed in the Congo emergency in the field of health. I would wish to assure you that we shall continue to do everything within the power of the World Health Organization to provide the assistance requested, and that we shall, of course
#
request reimbursement only for clearly identifiable additional costs to WHO of these operations. There are certain of the functions which we are performing in these emergency circumstances which are of the same nature as we normally provide to governments, and I would not expect to request reimbursement for the cost thereof.
With regard to the next stage of operations, that of the period after the emergency has been dealt with, I suggest that we might well discuss these longer-terra aspects at the next ACC meeting•
Sincerely yours,
M . G . Candau, M.D. Director-General
