The various steps to create a treaty are:
1-The acccrediting of persons who conduct negotiations on behalf of the contracting States.2-Negotitation.
3-Authentication and signature.
4-Ratification.
5-Accessions and adhesions.
6-Entry into force.
7-Registration and publication.
8-Application and enforcement.
we shall take both n.7 an n.8 of these steps in turn:
7-Registration and Publication
The United Nations Charter1945 provides by Article 102 that all treaties and international agreements entred into by Members of the United Nations Organisation shall-as soons possible-be registered with the Secretariat of the Organisation and be piblished by it.No party to treaty or agreement not registered in this way-may invoke that treaty or agreement before any organ of the United Nation-.this means that a State party to such an unregistered treaty or agreement cannot rely upon it in proceedings before the International Court of Justice or in meeting of the General Assembly or Security Council.The object of Article 102 was to prevent the practice of secret agreements between States.
8-Application and Enforcement
The final stage of the treaty-making process is actual incorporatin,where necessary of the treaty provisions in the municipal law of the State parties and the application by such States of these provisions and also any required administration and supervision by international organs.in practice,vigilant -follow up-work is needed to ensure that States parties do actually apply instruments binding them.some international organs, for example,International Labour Organisation with its Committee of Experts on the Application of Conventions.
