Origin

2018 - Fourth part-session

In the draft resolution, paragraph 6.2.1, replace the words

"challenge or reconsideration of a national delegation's credentials"

with the following words:

"non-ratification of the credentials, or annulment of ratification of the credentials of a national delegation (Rule 10.1.b)".

Explanatory note

Only the non-ratification or the annulment of ratification of credentials should require a two thirds majority. Challenges or reconsideration of credentials should be decided by a simple majority.
