Statement by the President regarding the pro· cedure jor the admission oj the Su,dan, Mo.
The next item on the agenda for this afternoon is one which it gives me particular pleasure to place before the Assembly, the item concerning the admission of the Sudan, Morocco and Tunisia to membership in the United Nations.
27. The consideration of this item at this stage represents a recourse to a special procedure calculated to meet the special circunlst;:.nces of the present case, and it does not constitute a precedent. P,=rhaps I might be allowed to review the circumstances that have made it desirable and appropriate to raise the issue today before the usual measures relating to the adoption of the agenda have been taken.
2K As we all recall the very last days of the tenth session, the General Assembly, on the recommendation of the Security Council, decided to admit sixteen additional countries to membership in the United Nations [555th meeting]. Owing to the late date on which the de<;ision was made, there was no opportunity to prepare a fitting reception for the new Members.
