In July 1995 the ICOM Executive Council approved the formation of a new
National Committee under the internationally recognised official title of
"Federal Republic of Yugoslavia (Serbia & Montenegro)" .  The National
Committee has the required minimum number of five indivdual and
institutional members and the President is:

        Prof. Aleksandar Despic
        Director, Museum of Science and Technology
        Knez Mihailova 35/4
        11 000 BELGRADE
        Yugoslavia
        Tel. +381-11.187 1552  fax: +381-11.182 825

No doubt Prof. Despic would be happy to pass on addresses or messages re
other museums.

ICOM also has National Committees in the following Republics of
ex-Yugoslavia (President & address follows in each case):
