Meeting on July 7, 1951, the Council of the Organization of American States accepted the offer of the government of Panama that the seat of the Second Extraordinary meeting of the Inter-American Economic and Social Council, called for August 20, should be at Panama City. In subsequent meetings, the Council took action, on the initiative of the representative of Mexico, toward implementing Article 76 of the Charter of Bogotá by establishing a provisional Committee for Cultural Action. The provisional committee was to be appointed by the first meeting of the Inter-American Cultural Council, which was to meet at Mexico City from September 10 to 25, 1951. In accordance with the Charter, the permanent members of the Committee for Cultural Action were to be designated at the Tenth Inter-American Conference. Further, the Council decided to establish a special committee which would be entrusted with the responsibility of studying the procedure that should be followed in order to define the position of the American countries in regard to the Universal Convention on Copyright sponsored by the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization and in order to determine the way in which the rules of Pan American conventions could be brought into accord with the proposed universal rules.
