The World Assembly,
Realizing that GA#75 "International Radio Act" intends to establish certain regulations on radio signals,
Fearing, however, that GA#75's intentions are undermined by the resolution's flaws, which include:
- The resolution's fifth clause, which allows the "unrestricted use of any radio power and frequency in the immediate protection of life or property in situations", which includes radio frequencies and radio power which could be harmful to life,
- Requirements that nations must maintain radio services dedicated to services such as spacecraft communication, aircraft communication, and radiolocation which are wholly inefficient and financially wasteful to nations that do not need such services,
- The International Radiocommunications Commission's requirement to set general frequency allocations internationally will result in pre-existing radio signals with designated uses having to be uprooted for the sake of achieving this objective, and therefore the resolution inhibits governmental, corporate, and hobby radio operations by forcing them to move away from the frequency that they are accustomed to using,
Understanding that this resolution exposes civilians to highly powerful waves, which can cause long-term health issues such as cancer,
Believing that such risks can easily be mitigated with appropriate regulation on this matter, which the existence of this resolution prohibits the World Assembly from considering,
Regretting the unnecessary expense imposed upon WA member nations, as this resolution requires nations to maintain radio services that they do not use or need within their borders,
Encouraging the World Assembly to pursue more refined legislation regarding regulating radio signals and their uses,
Hereby Repeals "International Radio Act" (GA#75).
