The 14th Plenum of the IEC warmly salutes the English Trotskyist majority which remains faithful to the International and which held its special Conference December 20, 1953.
It decides:
a. To establish henceforth regular organizational relations with these comrades and to consider them in practice as the continuators of the English section of the Fourth International, with all the rights and duties due, according to the statutes of the International, to each section.
b. To leave the final decision on this question to the Fourth World Congress.
c. To ask them to consider as an essential task for an entire period, and at any rate until the World Congress, to keep the members of the Cannonite faction in England informed of the international pre-Congress discussion and of all the political documents of the International, and finally, to miss no opportunity to let all these members know that the English section of the Fourth International is fully open to them with no conditions other than acceptance of the discipline and the rules of functioning of the International.
Adopted unanimously
