Agenda item 17
Appointments to fill vacancies in subsidiary organs and other appointments
(g) Appointment of members of the Committee on Conferences
Note by the Secretary-General (A/54/107)
The Acting President
As indicated in document A/54/107, since the terms of office of Chile, Fiji, France, Gabon, Japan, Namibia and the Russian Federation will expire on 31 December 1999, 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 2000.
After consultations with the Chairmen of the groups of African States, Asian States, Eastern European States, Latin American and Caribbean States as well as Western European and other States, I have appointed Chile, Equatorial Guinea, France, Japan, Namibia, the Philippines and the Russian Federation as members of the Committee on Conferences, with effect from 1 January 2000.
May I take it that the Assembly takes note of these appointments?
The Acting President
May I take it that it is the wish of the General Assembly to conclude its consideration of sub-item (g) of agenda item 17?
