Expressing the hope that this ad hoe assessment will be the last one to be presented to the General Assembly and that the Working- Group on the Examination of the Administrative and Budgetary Procedures of the United Nations will be able to recommend to the Assembly, at the nineteenth session, a special method for the equitable sharing of the costs of peace-keeping operations in- volving heavy expenditures, Taking into account that the economically more de- veloped countries are in a position to make relatively larger contributions and that the economically less developed countries have a relatively limited capacity to contribute towards peace-keeping operations involv- ing heavy expenditures, 1. Decides to continue the Special Account for the United Nations Emergency Force; 2. Decides to appropriate an amount of $17,750,000 for the operations of the United Nations Emergency Force for 1964 ; 3.

Recommends that the Member States named in paragraph 4 above make voluntary contributions in addition to their assessments under the present reso- lution in order to finance authorized expenditures in excess of the total amount assessed under this reso- lution, such voluntary contributions to be credited to a special account by the Secretary-General and trans- ferred to the Special Account for the United Nations Emergency Force as and when an economically less developed country has once paid to the credit of the latter account its assessment under paragraph 3 (b) above or an equal amount, the transfer to be of an amount which bears the same proportion to the total of such voluntary contributions as the amount of such payment bears to the total of the assessments on eco- nomically less developed countries under paragraph 3 ( b) ; any amount left in such special account on 31 December 1966 shall revert to the Member States that made such voluntary contributions in proportion to their respective voluntary contributions; 6.
