will introduce the progress report on the twenty-ninth session of that Group, which will be circulated as an official document of the Conference under the symbol CD/981. As usual, members wishing to do so may comment on the progress report, as well as on the statement to be made by its Chairman. As is the practice in the Conference, we shall take action on the recommendations contained in paragraphs 9 and 13 of the progress report at the plenary meeting to be held on Thursday 12 April. I should also like to inform you that, owing to consultations to be held by the Secretary-General of the United Nations during his mission in Geneva, the Council Chamber will not be available this afternoon and tomorrow morning. Accordingly, the meeting of the Ad hoc Committee on the Prevention of an Arms Race in Outer Space which was to have been held in this conference room this afternoon will take place instead in conference room III. The meeting of the Group of 21 scheduled for tomorrow morning will be held in conference room V. I have no other business for today, and I now intend to adjourn this plenary meeting. The next plenary meeting of the Conference on Disarmament will be held on Thursday, 5 April, at 10 a.m. The meeting rose at 12,45 p.m.
