What's being studied — points to watch

Sets the WRC-31 agenda

Recommendations from here become the backbone of the next conference — the highest-leverage step for future change.

Prioritisation contest

Far more topics are proposed than can be carried, so the debate is about which to advance and which to defer.

Preliminary vs firm

Items may go on the firm next-conference agenda or a preliminary agenda for conferences further out.

Council confirms

The conference recommends; the ITU Council formally sets the next WRC agenda.
