Expression of thanks to the retiring President
The President
As this is the first meeting of the Security Council for the month of October, I should like to take the opportunity to pay tribute, on behalf of my colleagues in the Council, to His Excellency Mr. Juan Antonio Yáñez-Barnuevo, Permanent Representative of Spain to the United Nations, for his service as President for the month of September 2004. I am sure I speak for all members of the Council in expressing deep appreciation to him for the skill with which he conducted the Council's business last month and the manner in which he did so.
Adoption of the agenda
The situation between Iraq and Kuwait
Letter dated 21 September 2004 from the Secretary-General addressed to the President of the Security Council (S/2004/764)
The President
The Security Council will now begin its consideration of the item on its the agenda. The Security Council is meeting in accordance with the understanding reached in its prior consultations.
Members of the Council have before them photocopies of document S/2004/764, which contains a letter dated 21 September 2004 from the Secretary-General -- whose presence I welcome -- concerning security arrangements for the United Nations Assistance Mission for Iraq (UNAMI).
Members of the Council also have before them the draft of a reply which I, as President of the Security Council, propose to send to the Secretary-General, informing him that the Council welcomes the proposed arrangements set out in his letter and urges Member States to respond positively with contributions.
In the absence of objection, I shall assume that the Security Council agrees that I should send the reply as drafted to the Secretary-General.
It is so decided.
The reply will be issued as a document of the Council under the symbol S/2004/765.
The Security Council has thus concluded the present stage of its consideration of the item on its agenda.
