Resúmen
Recognizes that the extraordinary and unrelentingly high levels of illicit use, cultivation, production and distribution of narcotic drugs and psychotropic substances and of illicit drug-trafficking necessitate a comprehensive review of the international drug control machinery; concludes that the general decline in resources allocated to the UN International Drug Control from both regular and extrabudgetary sources seriously impairs the efforts against illicit trafficking in and abuse of narcotic drugs and psychotropic substances; requests the Secretary-General: (a) to convene a small group of experts to undertake a comprehensive review of how the efforts against illicit drugs have evolved with the UN system; (b) to instruct the expert group, inter alia, to identify any measures necessary to strengthen the core activities of the Programme; (c) to prepare a progress report on the issues identified by the expert group, to be submitted to the General Assembly at its special session to be held in June 1998; (d) to prepare a final report based on the work of the expert group, taking into account the view expressed during the special session on how to strengthen the UN machinery for international drug control.
