S/PV.6189 Security Council

The Security Council will now begin its consideration of the item on its agenda. The Council is meeting in accordance with the understanding reached in its prior consultations. Members of the Council have before them document S/2009/456, which contains the text of a draft resolution prepared in the course of the Council’s prior consultations. I wish to draw the attention of members to document S/2009/438, which contains the third report of the Secretary-General on the United Nations Integrated Peacebuilding Office in Sierra Leone. It is my understanding that the Council is ready to proceed to the vote on the draft resolution before it. Unless I hear any objection, I shall now put the draft resolution to the vote now. There being no objection, it is so decided.

There were 15 votes in favour. The draft resolution has been adopted unanimously as resolution 1886 (2009). The Security Council has thus concluded the present stage of its consideration of the item on its agenda.
