 Welcome to the ITU studio and we're here today with Marcin Kazuski, who is head of the International Relations Unit of the Department of Telecommunications of Poland. He's also CEPT Coordinator for ITU and Vice Chairman of the Standing Committee for Administration and Management of the ITU Council. Marcin, thank you very much indeed for being with us today. Thank you for having this opportunity. Thank you very much. I'd like to start off by asking you about the ITU Council that's meeting over the next few days. What for you do you think are the main challenges of the ITU Council this year? I guess the main things are to finish off the conferences, the outcomes of conferences that we had in recent months, approving the reports from the WICIT, from WTSA, and from the WTPF. So lots of strange abbreviations, but quite a lot of work and lots of job to do. And on top of that I would say that it would be a budgetary problem, because as you know, we are living right now in the middle of economic financial crisis. So then the crisis poses a lot of challenges to individuals, to corporations, to member states, and to international organizations like ITU. So the key issue would be to find a way that ITU can fulfill its mission and have long-term financial stability. So that would be the key job for us. Tell me a little bit about the committee that you're Vice Chairman of and why its work is important and what essentially it's going to be tackling this year. Yeah. Okay, so basically the Council divides itself into two. One is a plenary and second one is a standing committee. The time member of and basically the standing committee does fulfill its task or concentrates mainly on budget management and on financial issues. And as I said before, since we are living in the times of economic constraints, I guess that would be the most important task to find a long-term solution for ITU's in the coming years to have to guarantee that ITU can fulfill its mission in the future. Without going into the minutiae of it, how complex a task is it going to be to balance all of these elements out, do you think? It will be complex because as you know probably there are different interests within, surrounding the whole process. You know, the different member states, they want to pursue different goals. They have different priorities, different parts and different policies fulfilled by ITU are important for them. So finding a right balance would be a crucial step. And then trying to find a new, more efficient way, ways of doing things here in Geneva, there will be another important step for ITU. And what's Poland's perspective on this? For us, the most important task would be to have, to guarantee that ITU is able to achieve its mission and to achieve the goals that it's dedicated to. So this is important. And then that's why we would like to see ITU to become much more efficient. And now I know that there are policy, internal policy being implemented like results-based budgeting, like introducing new KPIs, key performances indicators. And this is, in our opinion, these are steps in the right direction because these steps are helping ITU to become more efficient and basically better in the future. But then of course there are problems with long-term obligations of ITU. And here this is difficult because not everything depends on ITU because, for example, some things depend on our under-UAN pension system and we cannot do much about these things. And I can tell you that in this case the budgetary position of pension is getting bigger and bigger. So we have to tackle this. Marcin Kaszewski, thank you very much for being with us today. Thank you very much.
