Abstract
The Council of the Intergovernmental Committee for European Migration (ICEM) held its eighteenth session on November 12–16, 1962, under the chairmanship of Mr. Peers L. Carter, United Kingdom permanent representative to the European Office of the United Nations. The Canadian ambassador informed the Council that Canada would resign its membership in ICEM, effective December 31, 1962. The Canadian delegate stressed that his government's departure from ICEM in no way diminished Canada's interest and concern for refugees. He said that the Canadian government would examine from year to year proposals to make a special voluntary grant to ICEM for the transport of refugees. The Council took note of the Canadian government's decision with deep regret.
