International Court of Justice starts e-mail notification of Press
Communiques

THE HAGUE, 1 March 1999 -- The International Court of Justice (ICJ), the
principal judicial organ of the United Nations, today launched an e-mail
notification system for Press Communiques posted on its website, providing
the public with up-to-date notice of new information.

Subscribers to the service, which is free, will receive an e-mail each time
a new Press Communique is issued by the Court.  The e-mail will indicate
the title, the date and the Internet address of the Press Communique.

To register for the notification service, visit the Court's website
(http://www.icj-cij.org) and click on "Subscribe to e-mail notification of
Press Communiques".

The Court's website, on which its Judgments, Advisory Opinions and Orders
are posted shortly after being handed down, features general information on
the Court, its composition (biographies and photographs of the Judges) and
its functioning (Statute and Rules), the written and oral pleadings in many
of its cases, Press Communiques, speeches by the President and data on the
bases of jurisdiction.  It is equipped with a search engine and updated
daily. Recent additions have included summaries of past decisions (back to
1946), the Annual Report of the Court and a catalogue of publications.

The website, which was launched in September 1997, currently receives more
than half a million hits per month from law professionals, lecturers,
students, government officials, journalists and the general public.
