Considering that the issue and recognition of travel documents is necessary to facilitate the movement of refugees, and in particular their resettlement,
Urges Governments which are parties to the Inter-Governmental Agreement on Refugee Travel Documents signed in London on 15 October 1946, or which recognize travel documents issued in accordance with the Agreement, to continue to issue or to recognize such travel documents, and to extend the issue of such documents to refugees as defined in Article 1 of the Present Convention or to recognize the travel documents so issued to such persons, until they shall have undertaken obligations under Article 23 of the present Convention.
