and co-operate in the implementation of those resolutions within a specific time-frame;
3. Urges the representatives of the two communities to resume negotiations, under the auspices of the
Secretary-General, on an agreed basis, bearing in mind
the aforementioned resolutions;
4. Requests the Secretary-General to report on the
efforts made with regard to the negotiations referred
to in paragraph 3 of the present resolution and on
the progress towards the implementation of its resolutions by 30 May 1979 or earlier if developments
should warrant it;
5. Decides to remain seized of the matter and to
review the situation in June 1979 in order to continue
to promote a just solution to the Cyprus problem.
Adopted at the 2100th meeting by consensus.
