WARC-ORB-85: Guaranteeing access to the geostationary orbit

The measures that have been introduced to regulate the use of the geostationary orbit are considered by the vast majority of ITU members to be inadequate in their ability to guarantee access to the orbit by all states. In the absence of any powers of enforcement for the ITU, it would seem that ORB-85 may decide that only a long term plan, for the fixed-satellite service, could guarantee access to all states. An alternative is suggested that could meet the objectives of all states.
