Who would ITU be in that sentence ?

ITU hasnt said anything about leapseconds since the last ratification
of TF.460, and they won't do again, until some action in the general
assembly takes place, because ITU only has the voice lent to it by
the general assembly.

You are consistently confusing the people/countries which have proposed
changing TF.460, with this "nefarious ITU" which you accuse of not
doing this or doing that.

If you actually look at it, all ITU does is coordinate meetings and
publish documents that come out of those meetings.

The participants in the meetings who have proposed changing TF.460
is the representatives of the US government.

If you feel they lack in the communications department, then complain
about the US government, don't complain about ITU.
