Excellency,
I should like to extend my warmest congratulations to your Government upon the election of the Republic of Austria as a member of the Security Council for the period 1 January 2009 to 31 December 20 10. Membership of the Council brings with it considerable responsibilities, as it is the United Nations organ on which the Charter confers primary responsibility for the maintenance of international peace and security.

May I take this opportunity to request that the name of your Government's representative on the Security Council, as well as the names of any deputy or alternate representatives, be communicated to me at your earliest convenience.
As I must submit a report to the Security Council under rule 15 of the provisional rules of procedure of the Security Council, I should greatly appreciate receiving no later than 17 December 2008 credentials for the representative and deputy or alternate representatives of the Republic of. Austria on the Security Council.
I wish also to invite your attention to rule 13, which provides, inter alia, that the credentials of representatives on the Security CounGil shall be communicated to the Secretary-General and should be issued either by the Head of State or Government concerned or by its Minister for Foreign Affairs.
Please accept, Excellency, the assurances of my highest consideration.
