The Council of the International Civil Aviation Organization, which held its 21st session in Montreal from February 2 through April 7, 1954, decided to circulate to ICAO members a study on airport charges throughout the world made by the Air Transport Committee. A conference to amend the 1929 Warsaw convention on liability of air carriers for passengers and cargo was to be convened in the Netherlands in September 1955, according to another Council decision. Two further meetings which the Council decided to convene were an air navigation meeting for the north Atlantic region to be held in Montreal on October 5, 1954, and the fourth session of the ICAO Facilitating Division to be held as early in 1955 as practicable. The Council also decided to move ICAO's far east and Pacific office, currently located in Melbourne, Australia, to Bangkok, Thailand, sometime toward the end of 1954.
