relating mainly to item 114. 24. Mr. GODFREY (New Zealand) said that his delegation maintained the position it had taken in the Economic and Social Council and therefore requested that the proposal should be put to the vote. 25. Mr. KELLER (United States of America) observed that General Assembly resolution 31/140, while providing for exceptions to the general rule that sessions should be held at the headquarters of the body concerned, stated that the host country should defray the additional costs of sessions held away from headquarters. Yet, document A/C.S/38/31 indicated that additional appropriations totalling approximately $637,000 would be required if the changes in venue were I ... t A/C.5/38jSR.25 English -e6 (Mr. Keller, United States) approved. His delegation questioned whether such additional expenditure represented a proper use of resources. His delegation therefore had serious doubts regarding the advisability of adopting the Chairman's proposal. It would, however, await with interest the recommendation of the Advisory Committee and the comments of the host Governments concerned, which might well be prepared to shoulder the additional costs. 26. The CHAIRMAN invited the Co~nittee to vote on his proposal. 27. The Committee adopted the Chairman's proposal by 65 votes to 18, with 14 abstentions. 28.

The CHAIRMAN said that, if he heard no objection, he would take it that the Fifth Committee wished to adopt the draft resolutions recommended by the Committee on Conferences (A/38/32, para. 4), as modified by the amendments submitted in document A/C.S/38/L.6. 31.

**Analysis**
The text appears to be discussing a proposal to change the venue of a World Conference, and the financial implications of doing so. The mention of "additional appropriations" and "additional costs" suggests that the conference is related to a specific program or activity, rather than a general field of interest. The involvement of the Fifth Committee and the Committee on Conferences also implies that the conference is related to the operations or administration of the United Nations.
