	Cubic decimetre and litre		(12)	(14)

The 11th Conférence Générale des Poids et Mesures (CGPM),

considering

that the cubic decimetre and the litre are unequal and differ by about 28 parts in 10⁶,

that determinations of physical quantities which involve measurements of volume are being made more and more accurately, thus increasing the risk of confusion between the cubic decimetre and the litre,

requests the Comité International des Poids et Mesures to study the problem and submit its conclusions to the 12th CGPM.
