    Thanks SNG and everyone who sent letters. The nice thing is this is on their official site and it will be hard to attribute it to documentation falsified by apostates. Some determined JWs living in denial will I supposed.

    To Whom It May Concern:

    Recently the NGO Section had been receiving numerous inquiries regarding the association of the Watchtower Bible and Tract Society of New York with the Department of Public Information (DPI). This organization applied for association with DPI in 1991 and was granted association in 1992. By accepting association with DPI, the organization agreed to meet criteria for association, including support and respect of the principles of the Charter of the United Nations and commitment and means to conduct effective information programmes with its constituents and to a broader audience about UN activities.

    In October 2001, the Main Representative of the Watchtower Bible and Tract Society of New York to the United Nations, Ciro Aulicino, requested termination of its association with DPI. Following this request, DPI made a decision to disassociate the Watchtower Bible and Tract Society of New York as of 9 October 2001.

    Please be informed that it is the policy of the Department of Public Information (DPI) of the United Nations to keep correspondence between the United Nations and NGOs applying for associatioin with DPI confidential. However, please see below the paragraph included in all letters sent to NGOs approved for association in 1992.

    "The principle purpose of association of non-governmental organizations with the United Nations Department of Public Information is the redissemination of information in order to increase public understanding of the principles, activities and achievements of the United Nations and its Agencies. Consequently, it is important that you should keep us informed about your organization's information programme as it relates to the United Nations, including sending us issues of your relevant publications. We are enclosing a brochure on the "The United Nations and Non-Governmental Organizations", which will give you some information regarding the NGO relationship."

    In addition, the criteria for NGOs to become associated with DPI include the following:

    • that the NGO share the ideals of the UN Charter;
    • operate solely on a not-for-profit basis;
    • have a demonstrated interest in United Nations issues and a proven ability to reach large or specialized audiences, such as educators, media representatives, policy makers and the business community;
    • have the commitment and means to conduct effective information programmes about UN activities by publishing newsletters, bulletins and pamphlets, organizing conferences, seminars and round tables; and enlisting the cooperation of the media.

    We expect that you will share this information with your concerned colleagues, as we are unable to address the scores of duplicate requests regarding the Watchtower Bible and Tract Society that are being directed to our offices. Thank you for your interest in the United Nations.

    Sincerely,

    [signed]

    Paul Hoeffel

    Chief
