Report
of the Committee for Programme and Coordination
(Forty-fifth
session, 6 June - 1 July 2005)
Notes:
Pursuant to General Assembly resolutions
54/236 and paragraph 4, Section III of
57/282, the General
Assembly reiterated that the Main Committees of the General
Assembly should include in their programme of work a review of
the recommendations contained in the report of the Committee
for Programme and Coordination (A/60/16), relevant to their
work and to take appropriate action.
In this context, the General Assembly
decided to allocate to the Second Committee, for its
consideration, the relevant recommendations contained in
chapter III of the report of the CPC, namely:
section C.1, entitled “Evaluation of linkages between
headquarters and field activities: a review of best practices
for poverty eradication in the framework of the United Nations
Millennium Declaration” and section C.2, entitled “In-depth
evaluation of the United Nations Human Settlements Programme”.
These two sections are relevant to the work of the Second
Committee, in particular, item 53 entitled “Implementation of
the outcome of the United Nations Conference on Human
Settlements (Habitat II) and strengthening of the United
Nations Human Settlements Programme (UN-Habitat)” and item 56
entitled “Eradication of poverty and other development
issues”.
In this context, careful consideration
should be made of the recommendations contained in the report
of the Committee for Programme and Coordination (A/60/16), in
particular Section C, paragraphs 135 through 139 and
paragraphs 151 through 158, contained in pages 20 through 24
of the report, and to communicate comments on the
above-mentioned recommendations to the Chairman of the
Fifth Committee.
