On page 8 of Press Release WOM/1278 of 13 March, the name of the representative of Israel speaking in right of reply should be Ron Adam.� His statement should read as follows:
In response, RON ADAM (Israel) said the name of his country had not been mentioned, but it was called Israel.� The Iranian representative’s intervention had reminded him of the darkest days of the United Nations when Israel had often been vilified.� He insisted that Jewish NGOs had indeed been banned from participating in the conference, as were two States which he did not name.� Had he been the Iranian representative, he would not have talked about tolerance in this form.
