In resolutionWHAl2.12,1the Twelfth World Health Assembly decided that there is a need for a headquarters building for WHO and that plans and specifications, together with more precise cost estimates within a maximum limit of Sw.fr. 40 000 000 (US $9 302 326), should be laid before the Thirteenth World Health Assembly. It further decided that the choice ^f a building plan and an architect should be made through international competition, the rules for which, including the value of the prizes to be offered, were to be established by the Executive Board. At the same time it delegated to the Board powers to act on behalf of the Assembly as regards approval of the building site, of the contract arrangements with the Swiss authori- ties, both Federal and Cantonal, and of the contract with the architect. It requested a full report to the Thirteenth World Health Assembly on the status of the building plans and on the financing of the expenditure. Action by Executive Board, twenty- fourth session 2. The Executive Board considered the matter at its twenty- fourth session held in June 1959, and adopted a resolution(EB24.R30)1dealing with those matters delegated to it by the Assembly. The Board approved the rules and programme for the architectural competition and agreed that, for practical reasons, the architectural competition should be limited to a maximum of 15 architects of repute, to be proposed by a committee of architectural experts chosen from various countries.
