Letter dated 9 January 2012 from the Chairman of the Committee on the Exercise of the Inalienable Rights of the Palestinian People addressed to the Secretary-General 

 I have the honour to inform you that I received a letter, dated 9 December 2011, addressed to the Chairman of the Committee on the Exercise of the Inalienable Rights of the Palestinian People from the Permanent Representative of Saudi Arabia to the United Nations, Mr. Abdallah Yahya Al-Mouallimi, informing me of the wish of his country to take part, as an observer, in the work of the Committee (see annex).

 The Committee at its 338th meeting, held on 15 December 2011, approved the request of Saudi Arabia and welcomed that country to take part, as an observer, in the work of the Committee.

 In the light of the above, I should be grateful if you would have the present letter and its annex circulated as a document of the General Assembly under agenda item 37.

 On behalf of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, and given the importance of the work of the Committee on the Exercise of the Inalienable Rights of the Palestinian People, I would like to inform you of the Mission’s request to join your committee as an observer member State.
