The General Assembly,
 
     Having considered the report of the Committee on Relations with the Host
Country, 
 
     Recalling Article 105 of the Charter of the United Nations, the
Convention on the Privileges and Immunities of the United Nations and the
Agreement between the United Nations and the United States of America
regarding the Headquarters of the United Nations, and the responsibilities of
the host country,
 
     Recognizing that effective measures should continue to be taken by the
competent authorities of the host country, in particular to prevent any acts
violating the security of missions and the safety of their personnel,
 
     Noting the spirit of cooperation and mutual understanding that has guided
the deliberations of the Committee on issues affecting the United Nations
community and the host country,
 
     Welcoming the increased interest shown by Member States in participating

proposals and procedures on the issue of financial indebtedness set out in
annex II to the current report of the Committee;

of the Secretary-General and of the host country;
 
     6.   Calls upon the host country to review measures and procedures
relating to the parking of diplomatic vehicles, with a view to responding to
the growing needs of the diplomatic community, and to consult with the
Committee on these issues;
 
     7.   Requests the Secretary-General to remain actively engaged in all
aspects of the relations of the United Nations with the host country;
 
     8.   Requests the Committee to continue its work, in conformity with
