administering Power, other Member States and relevant agencies of the United Nations system. (11) The Special Committee notes that, owing to the magnitude of the devastation in Montserrat, the Territory will require substantial assistance in its rehabilitation and reconstruction efforts. In this regard, the Special -21-Committee urges the administering Power, other Member States and relevant agencies of the United Nations system to continue to contribute generously to such efforts, in accordance with General Assembly resolution 44/3 of 12 October 1989. (12) The Special Committee welcomes the contribution to the development of the Territory by the United Nations Development Programme, the United Nations Children's Fund and all specialised agencies and organisations of the United Nations system operating in Montserrat. In this regard, the Committee calls upon these and other international and regional organisations, as well as donor Governments, to intensify their efforts to accelerate progress in the economic and social development of the Territory. (13) The Special Committee reiterates that, since the administering Power withdrew the associate membership of Montserrat from the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organisation in 1983, the Territory has not been able to benefit fully from the activities of that agency. The Committee, noting the interest of the Government of Montserrat in readmission of the Territory as an associate member of the agency and noting with concern that no action has been taken in this regard, once again reiterates its call upon the administering Power, in co-operation with the territorial Government, to take urgent steps to facilitate such readmission. (14) The Special Committee recalls that United Nations missions visited the Territory in 1975 and 1982. Mindful that visiting missions provide an effective means of assessing the situation in the Non-Self-Governing Territories, the Committee considers that the possibility of sending a further visiting mission to Montserrat at an appropriate time should be kept under review.
