Professor Vasciannie will serve the rest of the term which runs until December 31, 2005, on the juridical committee following Dr. Rattrey’s resignation due to ill health. The IJC serves the OAS as an advisory body on judicial matters of an international nature and promotes the progressive development and the codification of international law.
