Cooperation of the centres of information dealing with construction in the counries belonging to the Council of Mutual Economic Aid

Abstract

In order to utilize the advantages derlving from division of work, the Permanent Committee on Construction of the Council of Mutual Economic Aid decided for cooperation between the centres of information dealing with construction in the countries belonging to the Council. Cooperation has started in two stages. Since January 1st, 1961, the centres are sending abstracts made from the literature of their own respective countries to each of the associated countries and, since January 1st, 1962, they are treating the literature of the capitalist countries in the same manner. To achieve this end, each of the socialist countries has undertaken the treatment of the literature dealing with construction in a number of capitalist countries. The Hungarian People's Republic has undertaken that of the Scandinavian countries. Cooperation is in progress, is being continuoualy developed and is very successful.
