Every year, Member States' representatives in the Fifth Committee (Administrative and Budgetary) of the United Nations General Assembly discuss and vote on resolutions dealing with such issues as the Organization's budget, the functioning of its principal oversight body — the Office of Internal Oversight Services — and the financing of international tribunals and UN peace missions.
Below are links to the UN Chronicle's coverage of the Fifth Committee proceedings during the current and previous sessions of the General Assembly, as well as useful links to other relevant websites.
