The International Telecommunications Union Radiocommunications section (ITUR) Working Party 7A has created a Special Rapporteur Group on the Future of the UTC Time Scale, and it presented its final report in September, 2004. This report suggests potential alternatives to the current relationship between the UTC time scale and the Earth's rotation angle as described by UT1. It is expected that this may lead to formal proposals to re-define this relationship. Possible consequences for the astronomical community are reviewed.
