Agenda item 17
Appointments to fill vacancies in subsidiary organs and other appointments
(f) Appointment of members of the Committee on Conferences
Note by the Secretary-General (A/50/106)
The Acting President
As indicated in document A/50/106, since the terms of office of Austria, Fiji, Grenada, Jordan, Morocco, Niger and the United States of America on the Committee on Conferences expire on 31 December 1995, it is necessary for the President of the General Assembly to appoint, during the current session, seven members to fill the resulting vacancies. The members so appointed will serve for a period of three years beginning on 1 January 1996.
After consultations with the Chairmen of the groups of African States, Asian States, Latin American and Caribbean States, and Western European and other States, the President of the General Assembly has appointed Austria, Jamaica, Jordan, Morocco and the United States of America as members of the Committee on Conferences, with effect from 1 January 1996.
May I take it that the Assembly takes note of these appointments?
The Acting President
Regarding the remaining two seats, one to be filled from among the African States and one from among the Asian States, the President of the General Assembly intends to hold further consultations with the Chairmen of the groups concerned. Therefore, I propose that the Assembly keep sub-item (f) of agenda item 17 on the agenda of the fiftieth session.
If I hear no objection, I shall take it that the Assembly agrees to that procedure.
The Acting President
We have thus concluded this stage of our consideration of sub-item (f) of agenda item 17.
