49TH SESSION OF THE UN GENERAL ASSEMBLY:
As agreed in UN General Assembly Resolution 47/188, the 49th General Assembly will review implementation of the resolution and the Convention itself. In addition, the General Assembly will need to adopt a resolution that will enable the Secretariat to continue to function during the interim period before the Convention enters into force. Currently, the Secretariat's mandate is due to expire in January 1995. The General Assembly will also have to make arrangements for further sessions of the Committee until the first meeting of the Conference of Parties.
