Decision of the Fifth Committee
5. The Fifth Committee, having considered the statement of programme budget
implications submitted by the Secretary-General (A/C.5/61/15) and the related
report of the Advisory Committee on Administrative and Budgetary Questions (see
A/C.5/61/SR.28):
(a) Decides to inform the General Assembly that, should it adopt the draft
resolution contained in document A/AC.265/2006/L.8/Rev.1, no immediate financial
implications would arise;
(b) Also decides that any additional resources, as might be necessary, would
be reported in the context of the second performance report on the programme
budget for the biennium 2006-2007; and further, that continuing requirements
relating to the activities mandated under the terms of the draft resolution, if adopted,
would be considered in the context of the proposed programme budgets for the
related biennium.
