Reiterates that it is the obligation of the administering Power to create such conditions in the Territory as will enable the people of Bermuda to exercise freely and without interference their inalienable right to self-determination and independence; reaffirms its strong conviction that the presence of military bases and installations in the Territory could constitute a major obstacle to the implementation of the Declaration and that it is the responsibility of the administering Power to ensure that the existence of such bases and installations does not hinder the population of the Territory from exercising its right to self-determination and independence; urges the administering Power to continue to take all necessary measures not to involve the Territory in any offensive acts or interference directed against other States; requests the Special Committee of 24 to continue the examination of this question at its next session, including the possible dispatch of a visiting mission to Bermuda.
