Summary
Calls upon all Governments and intergovernmental organizations to adhere strictly to the Programme of action contained in the Declaration on Apartheid and its Destructive Consequences in Southern Africa by maintaining existing measures aimed at encouraging the South African régime to eradicate apartheid until there is clear evidence of profound and irreversible changes; calls upon the South African régime to establish a climate fully conducive to negotiations by taking all the steps stipulated in the Declaration in particular, to implement its commitment to repeal all legislation such as the Internal Security Act; calls for an immediate end to violence and urges the South African authorities to take urgent action to end it, specifically by dismantling the apartheid structures; welcomes the fact the ANC and the South African régime have engaged in talks which have resulted in the Groote Schuur and Pretoria meetings aimed at facilitating substantive negotiations; urges the international community and the Secretary-General to provide all possible assistance to facilitate the re-establishment of previously banned political organizations in South Africa as well as the reintegration of released political prisoners; requests the Secretary-General to provide all necessary assistance for the voluntary repatriation of the South African refugees and political exiles in safety and dignity, and requests the South African régime, the liberation movements and other organizations in South Africa and the international community to extend their full support to this endeavour.
