- The report of the Disarmament Commission for 2002 (document A/57/42) recalls that during a resumed second organizational meeting on 17 April, the Commission, due to extraordinary circumstances, decided to continue its consideration of two agenda items -- practical confidence-building measures in the field of conventional arms, and ways and means to achieve nuclear disarmament -- at its next substantive session in 2003, from 31 March to 17 April.

- Reports
- The UNDC held two meetings during its organizational session for 2001, on 1 December 2000, and 9 April 2001, considering questions related to the organization of work and substantive matters. The Commission decided to continue consideration of the two substantive items on its agenda: (a) ways and means to achieve nuclear disarmament and (b) practical confidence-building measures in the field of conventional arms. It established a committee of the whole and two working groups to deal with these two substantive items.
- At the beginning of its substantive session, convened from 9 to 27 April under the chairmanship of Diane Quarless of Jamaica, the Commission held a general exchange of views on all agenda items. It entrusted Working Group I with the item on the "ways and means to achieve nuclear disarmament," and Working Group II on "practical confidence-building measures in the field of conventional arms". The UNDC concluded its work on 27 April by adopting its report to the General Assembly, which incorporated the reports of both Working Groups.
