Background ✨
ICAO previously said the protocols to expand the ICAO Council from 36 to 40 states and the Air Navigation Commission from 19 to 21 members entered into immediate effect once Ecuador became the 128th state to ratify the instruments, and the Council would consider an extraordinary Assembly session to elect four new Council members.1
