The Acting President
The Assembly has before it four draft resolutions recommended by the Third Committee in paragraph 26 of its report and one draft decision recommended by the Committee in paragraph 27 of the same report. We will now take a decision on draft resolutions I to IV, one by one, and on the draft decision.
Draft resolution I is entitled "Preparations for the Twelfth United Nations Congress on Crime Prevention and Criminal Justice". The Third Committee adopted the draft resolution without a vote. May I take it that the Assembly wishes to do likewise?
The Acting President
Draft resolution II is entitled "Improving the coordination of efforts against trafficking in persons". The Third Committee adopted the draft resolution without a vote. May I take it that the Assembly wishes to do the same?
The Acting President
Draft resolution III is entitled "Strengthening the United Nations Crime Prevention and Criminal Justice Programme, in particular its technical cooperation capacity". The Third Committee adopted the draft resolution without a vote. May I take it that the Assembly wishes to do likewise?
The Acting President
Draft resolution IV is entitled "United Nations African Institute for the Prevention of Crime and the Treatment of Offenders". The Third Committee adopted the draft resolution without a vote. May I take it that the Assembly wishes to do the same?

We now turn to the draft decision, entitled "Documents considered by the General Assembly in connection with the question of crime prevention and criminal justice". May I take it that it is the wish of the General Assembly to adopt the draft decision recommended by the Third Committee?
The Acting President
May I take it that it is the wish of the General Assembly to conclude its consideration of agenda item 97?
