APT Coordination Activties for RA-23

 APG-23 RA Preparation Group considered the following topics for RA-23.

• Modification to Resolution ITU-R 65 ( Principles for the process of future development of IMT for 2020 and beyond)

APT has not developed an ACP on this issue. However, following APT Views are agreed at APG23-6:

APT Members are of the view that Resolution ITU-R 65 has been working effectively for IMT from the beginning of IMT-2020. It achieved success during the standardization of IMT-2020 radio interface technologies. It is believed that the IMT standardization is aligned with Radio Regulation. APT Members are of the view that ITU-R continues using the existing process defined in Resolution ITU-R 65 for the next generation IMT standardization, and this principle should be ensured when reviewing the Resolution at Radiocommunication Assembly.

APT Common Proposal: None
Topic Coordinator: Ms. Ying Peng (Peoples Republic of China), Mr. Yoshio Honda (Japan) 

• Revision to Resolution ITU-R 2-8 relating to WRC-23 Agenda Item 8

APT has submitted an ACP to revised Resolution ITU-R 2-8 in this regard. It is proposed to modify Resolution ITU-R 2-8 to enable the CPM to receive and consider contributions concerning proposals by administrations regarding their country footnotes, or country names in footnotes under WRCs standing agenda item described in further resolves 2 of Resolution 26 (Rev.WRC-23) for information only.
