The report of the Commission on Journals had been distributed to the National Committees and the commissions in May 1996 and is reprinted in Annex I, Appendix D. The Chairman of the Commission, C. E. BUGG, summarized the report and highlighted the growth of Section D of Acta Crystallographica, the progress of Journal of Synchrotron Radiation and the success of having individual Editorial Boards for the different sections of the journals. He noted that he would be retiring as Chairman and Editor-in-Chief at the Seattle Congress.
The report was accepted by the General Assembly and Professor Bugg was thanked for his dedicated work over nine years - under his guidance the journals had flourished.
