The President
The Assembly has before it eight draft resolutions recommended by the Third Committee in paragraph 36 of its report.
I should like to inform members that action on draft resolution VII will be postponed to a later date to allow time for the review of its programme budget implications by the Fifth Committee. The Assembly will take action on draft resolution VII as soon as the report of the Fifth Committee on its programme budget implications is available.
The Assembly will now take a decision on draft resolutions I to VI and VIII.
We turn first to draft resolution I, entitled "Critical situation of the International Research and Training Institute for the Advancement of Women".
The Third Committee adopted draft resolution I without a vote. May I take it that the Assembly wishes to do the same?
