1. Per Reftel instructions, Mission sent inquiries to the following
UN bodies in Vienna and has received their responses.
--------------
UNIDO
--------------
2. The United Nations International Development Organization (UNIDO)
provided UNVIE with a 2008 list of NGOs with consultative or
observer status. Based on this list and our own review, to the best
of our knowledge, UNIDO does not grant official status,
accreditation or recognition to any organization which promotes and
condones or seeks the legalization of pedophilia or which includes
as a subsidiary or member any such organization. NOTE: 1) The U.S.
has not been a member state of UNIDO since 1996. END NOTES
--------------
IAEA
--------------
3. Mission obtained a list of NGOs affiliated with the IAEA and
examined the information provided by IAEA. There was no indication
that any of the NGOs or their affiliates promotes and condones or
seeks the legalization of pedophilia. Per IAEA document
GOV/2008/18, the most recent compilation available, there are 51
NGOs affiliated with the IAEA.
--------------
UNODC
--------------
4. UNODC maintains an up-to-date database on all NGOs actively
collaborating in the fields of drug control, criminal justice and
crime prevention. In compiling and updating the database, UNODC
conducts a thorough check on NGOs. Based on this list and our own
review, to the best of our knowledge UNODC does not grant official
status, accreditation or recognition to any organization which
promotes and condones or seeks the legalization of pedophilia or
which includes as a subsidiary or member any such organization
--------------
INCB
--------------
5. INCB responded that in line with its mandate under the
international drug control treaties, the Board only cooperates with
Governments and with intergovernmental or international
organizations that have a mandate in drug control matters. The INCB
has, therefore, not been affiliated with any non-governmental
organization over the past year.
6. We estimate that completing this requirement demands
approximately 30 hours of Mission staff work. Mission contact on
this issue is Soching Tsai, Counselor for UN Affairs.
