Agenda item 154

Letter from the Secretary-General addressed to the President of the General Assembly (A/63/458)
Letter from the President of the Security Council addressed to the President of the General Assembly (A/63/470)
The President

Before taking up agenda item 154, I would like to consult members with regard to proceeding to the consideration of this agenda item. In this connection, I would like to draw attention to the relevant provision of rule 15 of the rules of procedure of the General Assembly, which reads as follows:

"No additional item may, unless the General Assembly decides otherwise by a two-thirds majority of the members present and voting, be considered until seven days have elapsed since it was placed on the agenda and until a committee has reported upon the question concerned."

In the absence of an objection, I shall take it that the Assembly agrees to proceed to the consideration of agenda item 154.

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