I first invite members to turn their attention to the report of the Fifth Committee (A/50/774) on agenda item 17 (a), entitled Appointment of members of the Advisory Committee on Administrative and Budgetary Questions.

The Fifth Committee recommends in paragraph 11 of its report that the General Assembly should appoint the following persons as members of the Advisory Committee on Administrative and Budgetary Questions for a three-year term of office beginning on 1 January 1996: Mr. Jose A. Marcondes de Carvalho, Mr. Vijay Gokhale, Mr. Yuji Kumamaru, Mr. Wolfgang Stockl, Mr. Tang Guangting and Mr. Giovanni Luigi Valenza.

May I take it that the Assembly appoints those persons?

It was so decided.
The Acting President

We come now to the report of the Fifth Committee on sub-item (b) of agenda item 17, "Appointment of members of the Committee on Contributions" (A/50/775).

In paragraph 9 of the report the Fifth Committee recommends that the General Assembly should appoint the following persons as members of the Committee on Contributions for a three-year term of office beginning on 1 January 1996: Mr. Pieter Johannes Bierma, Mr. Sergio Chaparro Ruiz, Mr. Neil Hewitt Francis, Mr. Atilio Norberto Molteni, Mr. Mohamed Mahmoud Ould El Ghaouth and Mr. Omar Sirry.

May I take it that it is the wish of the Assembly to appoint those persons?

It was so decided.
The Acting President

I now invite members to turn their attention to the report of the Fifth Committee on sub-item (c) of agenda item 17, "Appointment of a member of the Board of Auditors" (A/50/776).

In paragraph 4 of that report the Fifth Committee recommends that the General Assembly should appoint the Comptroller and Auditor-General of India as a member of the United Nations Board of Auditors for a three-year term of office beginning on 1 July 1996.

May I take it that the Assembly wishes to appoint this person?

It was so decided.
The Acting President --> -->
