Background Information: On the Agenda Items for Consideration by the Fifth Committee During the Main Part of the sixtieth session

Agenda Item 135
 Financing of the International Tribunal for the Prosecution of Persons Responsible for Serious Violations of International Humanitarian Law Committed in the Territory of the Former Yugoslavia since 1991
 

This item was included in the agenda of the forty-seventh session of the General Assembly, in 1993, on the proposal of the Secretary-General (A/47/955). At that session, the Assembly adopted resolution 47/235.

At its forty-eighth to fifty-eighth sessions, the Assembly continued its consideration of the item (resolutions 48/251, A/49/242A and B, 50/212 A to C, 51/214 A and B, 52/217, 53/212, 54/239 A and B, 55/225 A and B, 55/249, 55/250, 56/247 A and B, 56/278, 57/288, 58/254 and 58/255 and decisions 48/461, 49/471 A and B and 55/477).

At its fifty-ninth session, the General Assembly noted with concern the levels of unpaid assessed contributions and the resulting freeze imposed by the Secretariat on the Tribunal and the negative impact it was having on the completion strategy schedule, and requested the Secretary-General, in the context of the proposed budget for the biennium 2006-2007, to submit proposals on ways to ameliorate the staffing situation at the Tribunal (resolution 59/274).
