One of the principal purposes of establishing the Working Group, apart from the reasons adduced by the General Assembly in resolution AG/RES. 2774 (XLIII-O/13), is to create a homogeneous basis among the delegations for understanding the documentation submitted by the General Secretariat in both the program-budget and in its quarterly management performance reports, in the hope that facilitating understanding of them in this way will serve to enrich debate on the substantive issues involved.
AG/RES.2774 (XLIII-O/13) (no. 4, int. d & e - Literal extraction)
