Agenda item 108
Elimination of racism and racial discrimination
Report of the Third Committee (A/53/623)
Report of the Fifth Committee (A/53/727)
The Acting President
The Assembly will now take a decision on the three draft resolutions recommended by the Third Committee in paragraph 17 of its report.
The report of the Fifth Committee on the programme budget implications of draft resolution I is contained in document A/53/727.
We turn first to draft resolution I, entitled "International Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Racial Discrimination", which the Third Committee adopted without a vote. May I take it that the Assembly wishes to do likewise?
The Acting President
Draft resolution II is entitled "Third Decade to Combat Racism and Racial Discrimination and the convening of the World Conference against Racism, Racial Discrimination, Xenophobia and Related Intolerance".
The Third Committee adopted draft resolution II without a vote. May I take it that the Assembly wishes to do the same?
The Acting President
Draft resolution III is entitled "Measures to combat contemporary forms of racism, racial discrimination, xenophobia and related intolerance".
The Third Committee adopted draft resolution III without a vote. May I take it that the Assembly wishes to do the same?
The Acting President
The General Assembly has thus concluded this stage of its consideration of agenda item 108.
