Requests the Economic and Social Council to review the terms of resolution 58 (I), in the light of the provisions of paragraph 1 above and in the light of the discussions and suggestions made in the Third Committee of the General Assembly, and to recommend to the next regular session of the General Assembly any modifications which it may consider necessary therein.
