Agenda item 98
Environment and sustainable development
Report of the Second Committee (A/56/561 and Add.8)
The President
We turn first to the report of the Second Committee contained in document A/56/561.
May I take it that the General Assembly wishes to take note of the report of the Second Committee contained in document A/56/561?
The President
We now turn to the two draft resolutions recommended by the Second Committee in paragraph 12 of its report contained in document A/56/561/Add.8, and to the draft decision recommended by the Committee in paragraph 13 of the same report.
The Second Committee adopted draft resolution I, entitled "Status of preparations for the International Year of Freshwater, 2003". May I take it that the Assembly wishes to do the same?
The President
The Second Committee adopted draft resolution II, entitled "Report of the Governing Council of the United Nations Environment Programme on its twenty-first session". May I take it that the General Assembly wishes to do likewise?
The President
We next turn to the draft decision, entitled "Report of the Secretary-General on products harmful to health and the environment".
May I take it that the General Assembly wishes to adopt the draft decision?
The President
The General Assembly has thus concluded this stage of its consideration of agenda item 98.
