This contribution, which is linked with another report, is a United Nations report on remote interpretation. The reports concern two ‘full-scale’ experiments entailing the use of six official languages and the continuous use of remote interpretation throughout the duration of typical United Nations sessions. This report includes a review of experience gathered in the field of remote interpreting and presents the experiment carried out during a meeting held in Geneva (from January 25 to February 5, 1999) with interpretation provided by a team of interpreters working from Vienna and the use of high-capacity telephone lines.
