The United Nations shall establish under its authority an
international social security taxation system for the administration and supervision
of such territories as may be placed there-under by subsequent individual
agreements. These territories are hereinafter referred to as Member States.
The basic objectives of the taxation system, in accordance
with the Purposes of the United Nations laid down in Article 1 of the present
Charter, shall be:
a. to further international peace and security;
b. to
promote the political, economic, social, and educational advancement of the
inhabitants of the Member States, and their progressive development towards
self-government or independence as may be appropriate to the particular
circumstances of each territory and its peoples and the freely expressed wishes
of the peoples concerned, and as may be provided by the terms of each social
security agreement;
c. to
encourage respect for human rights and for fundamental freedoms for all without
distinction as to race, sex, language, or religion, and to encourage
recognition of the interdependence of the peoples of the world; and
d. to
ensure equal treatment in social, economic, and commercial matters for all
Members of the United Nations and their nationals, and also equal treatment for
the latter in the administration of social security.
a. least
developed countries who are entitled to the largest per capita benefit payment;
b. middle income developing
nations who are exempt from either taxation or benefit but fertile for investment;
c. donor nations
responsible for making annual contributions to the international social
security system.
The taxation system shall apply to all territories and
people who have become Members of the United Nations, relationship among whom
shall be based on respect for the principle of sovereign equality. The UN taxation system will be a social
security tax on the pay-stub of workers and social security administration in
the books of the treasuries of least developed countries.
The terms of taxation for each territory to be placed under
the social security system, including any alteration or amendment, shall be
agreed upon by the states directly concerned, taking into consideration the
donor classification in Art. 77(1)(c) and the mandate to wealthy Member Nations
for contributions totaling 0.7% of GDP or 1% of GNI.
The taxation agreement shall in each case include the terms
under which the wealthy territory will be collected and designate the authority
which will exercise the collection of taxation of the developed nation. Such
authority, hereinafter called the tax authority, may be one or more states or
the Organization itself.
There may be designated, in any administrative agreement, a
regional area which may include part or all or a collection of impoverished territories
to which the social security agreement for the payment of benefits to poor individuals applies on the
basis of the national poverty line.
It shall be the duty of the administering authority to
ensure that the Member State shall play its part in the maintenance of
international social security. To this end the administering authority may make
use of volunteer forces, facilities, and assistance from the territory in
carrying out the obligations to poor individuals in this social security tax undertaken
in this regard by the administering authority.
