Agenda item 7 (continued)
Organization of work, adoption of the agenda and allocation of items
Second report of the General Committee (A/63/250/Add.1)
The President
In the first paragraph of its report, the General Committee decided to recommend to the General Assembly that an additional item entitled "Recognition of sickle-cell anaemia as a public health priority" be included in the agenda of the current session under heading B, "Promotion of sustained economic growth and sustainable development in accordance with the relevant resolutions of the General Assembly and recent United Nations conferences".
May I take it that the General Assembly decides to include that item in the agenda of the current session under heading B?
The President
In paragraph 1 (b), the General Committee further recommends that the item be considered directly in plenary meeting. May I take it that the General Assembly decides to consider that item directly in plenary meeting?
The President
I should like to inform members that the item entitled "Recognition of sickle-cell anaemia as a public health priority" becomes item 155 on the agenda of the current session.
In paragraph 2 (a) of the report, the General Committee recommends to the General Assembly that an additional item entitled "Granting of observer status for the International Fund for Saving the Aral Sea in the General Assembly" be included in the agenda of the current session under heading I, "Organizational, administrative and other matters". May I take it that the General Assembly decides to include that item in the agenda of the current session under heading I?
The President
In paragraph 2 (b), the General Committee further recommends that the item be allocated to the Sixth Committee. May I take it that the General Assembly decides to allocate the item to the Sixth Committee?
The President
I should like to inform Members that the item entitled "Granting of observer status for the International Fund for Saving the Aral Sea in the General Assembly" has become item 156 of the agenda of the current session.
The Chairman of the Sixth Committee will be informed of the decision just taken by the General Assembly.
In paragraph 3 of the same report, the General Committee recommends to the General Assembly that item 58 entitled "Report of the Human Rights Council" be considered in plenary meeting as well as in the Third Committee, on the understanding that the Third Committee would consider and act on all recommendations of the Human Rights Council to the General Assembly, including those that deal with the development of international law in the field of human rights, without prejudice to the right of Member States to present draft resolutions and decisions on all issues considered in the report.
Taking into account this recommendation, the General Assembly, in plenary meeting, will consider the annual report of the Human Rights Council on its activities. It is also understood that the current arrangement is in no way a reinterpretation of resolution 60/251 and will be reviewed before the beginning of the sixty-fourth session of the General Assembly.
May I therefore take it that the General Assembly approves that recommendation?
The President
The Chairman of the Third Committee will be informed of the decision just taken by the General Assembly.
The General Assembly has thus concluded its consideration of the second report of the General Committee.
Agenda item 66
Report of the International Court of Justice
Report of the International Court of Justice (A/63/4)
Report of the Secretary-General (A/63/229)
The President
May I take it that the General Assembly takes note of the report of the International Court of Justice?
The President
In connection with this item, the Assembly also has before it a report of the Secretary-General on the Secretary-General's Trust Fund to Assist States in the Settlement of Disputes through the International Court of Justice, which has been circulated in document A/63/229.
I call upon Ms. Rosalyn Higgins, President of the International Court of Justice.
Ms. Higgins (International Court of Justice)
