Summary
Requests the Secretary-General to promote the establishment on a voluntary basis among Member States of a pool of resources, including military units, military observers, civil police, key staff personnel and humanitarian materiel, that might be made readily available to UN peace-keeping operations, subject to national approval; stresses the need for UN to be given resources commensurate with its growing responsibilities in the area of peace-keeping; considers it important that, in establishing future peace-keeping operations, financial questions should continue to be studied seriously, particularly at the planning stage, in order to ensure the most cost-effective and efficient conduct of such operations and strict control of their expenditures; emphasizes the importance of making, a clear distinction between peace-keeping operations themselves, and the provision to States and parties to a conflict, at their request, of other assistance from the specialized agencies and departments of UN not an integral part of the operation; invites the Secretary-General, to consider the strengthening and reform of the Secretariat units dealing with peace-keeping operations; invites the Secretary-General to institute arrangements for providing additional personnel on a short-term basis in order that the Secretariat can respond effectively and efficiently to fluctuations in its workload; invites the Secretary-General to envisage the adoption of all necessary arrangements to define logistics doctrine and standard operational procedures combining civilian and military aspects in order to achieve maximum efficiency and cost-effectiveness.
