Secondo lo Statuto dello IEMO, l’appartenenza è suddivisa in tre Classi:

  1. Membri effettivi
    Coloro che hanno aderito all’Organizzazione IEMO per Adesione
  2. Membri Associati
    Coloro che hanno concordato per Notifica Formale (vedi: Tipo F) o per Consenso (vedi: Tipo C) hanno il diritto di appartenenza all’Organizzazione IEMO e quindi a ricevere i Servizi dallo IEMO, un invito permanente a partecipare al Consiglio dello IEMO e alle Conferenze in qualità di Osservatori
  3. Membri Affiliati
    Devono essere considerati Stati in possesso di almeno un Ente Governativo che ha espresso mediante Notifica Formale di aver accettato per Consenso tale privilegio di appartenenza o Organizzazioni Nazionali o Internazionali pertinenti, che operano nel campo correlato alla gestione delle emergenze e notificato tale diritto mediante comunicazione scritta.

 

Queste classi si basano su diverse forme di adesione:

  1. A indica i Membri firmatari mediante Adesione scritta.
    Sono membri votanti effettivi di IEMO
  2. F indica che una notifica formale da parte di un organismo statale competente ha formalmente concordato l’adesione allo IEMO.
    Sono membri effettivi associati o affiliati con lo status di osservatore nel Consiglio dello IEMO
  3. C indicati i Membri considerati Onorari, in quanto la loro accettazione è stata concessa dall’Organizzazione IEMO e concordata dal Consenso.
    Sono considerati come sempre formalmente invitati a partecipare al Consiglio IEMO e alle Sessioni della Conferenza in qualità di osservatori, in attesa della loro Notifica Formale     (F) o Adesione (A) e forniti (gratuitamente) con i relativi servizi dello IEMO.

Incoraggiamo tutti i suoi membri al rapido aggiornamento dallo status di membri di diritto allo status di membri effettivi.

Lo status di membro della Classe C indica, infatti, che una formale comunicazione scritta, è stata inviata a mezzo raccomandata (con protocollo indicato nel rispettivo campo di competenza) dalla Segreteria Direzionale dell’IEMO alla competente Autorità Governativa nazionale competente in materia di prevenzione dell’emergenza , al fine di notificare che, secondo lo statuto dell’IEMO, un diritto di adesione è sorto dalla disposizione dell’Articolo 7 dello statuto dell’IEMO (trattato), nel Protocollo Aggiuntivo alla Convenzione di Istituzione dell’IEMO, che così prevede (en):

Article 7

IEMO Statutes

 

«… all States and Intergovernmental Organizations possess the right to become Associated Member of the Organization. This right is notified in writing, by the Directional Secretariat of the Organization to States and to Intergovernmental Organizations, who will decide, according to their respective rules, whether to avail themselves, or not of such right. In case of silent consensus, the right is given as acquired after a period of three months from the date of said notification and the new Member is duly registered in the List of Associated Members, with the relevant prerogatives, like the faculty to attend the sessions of the Council of the Organization in observer capacity and to share its Integrated Emergency Prevention System»

 

For States this special form of Membership by Right, granted by Consensus, derives from a specific provision of the Vienna Convention on the Law of Treaties (concluded in Vienna 23 May 1969 and entered into force on 27 January 1980 in accordance with article 84 (1) and registered ex officio with the United Nations Treaty Series (UNTS) 27 January 1980 at No. 18232

Article 36

Treaties providing for rights for third states

 

1. A right arises for a third State from a provision of a treaty if the parties to the treaty intend the provision to accord that right either to the third State, or to a group of States to which it belongs, or to all States, and the third State assents thereto. Its assent shall be presumed so long as the contrary is not indicated, unless the treaty otherwise provides.

2. A State exercising a right in accordance with paragraph 1 shall comply with the conditions for its exercise provided for in the treaty or established in conformity with the treaty.

 

In the case of the IEMO Statues (Treaty) the Right arising in favor of third States is the “Right if Membership”, considered as acquired by consensus elapsed the provisioned time of 3 months, from the date of notification of such Right.
This must be considered an innovative way to benefit of Provision of Article 36 of Vienna Convention on the Law of Treaties, thus the unquestionable validity of the Convention among UN Member States may justify such a specific use on this regard.
Of course “Member by Right” by Consensus should be considered as unbound beneficiaries of the IEMO services instead of legally bound by the provisions of the IEMO Statutes. In any case any State may in any case revoke this Right of Membership by simple communication addressed to the IEMO Secretariat. We must also recall that IEMO Membership is free from any whatsoever economic implication and therefore open and free.

For International Organizations the admission as member by Right is ruled by from a specific provision of the Vienna Convention on the Law of Treaties between States and International Organizations or between International Organizations (1986)

  1. …
  2. A right arises for a third organization from a provision of a treaty if the parties to the treaty intend the provision to accord that right either to the third organization, or to a group of international organizations to which it belongs , or to all international organizations, and the third organization assents thereto. Its assent shall be governed by the rules of the organization
  3. A State or an international organization exercising a right in accordance with paragraph 1 or 2) shall comply with the conditions for its exercise provided for in the treaty or established in conformity with the treaty.
