Dealing first with items recommended by the General Committee for consideration in plenary meeting, the Assembly decided to refer to the Fourth Committee all the chapters of the report of the Special Committee on decolonization relating to specific Territories, so that the Assembly might deal in plenary meeting with the question of the implementation of the Declaration as whole. The Assembly agreed that, in connection with item 28 on the "Policies of apartheid of the Government of South Africa", the item should be considered directly in plenary meeting, on the understanding that the representatives of the Organization of African Unity and of national liberation movements recognized by that organization would be permitted to participate in the discussion in plenary meeting and that organizations and individuals having a special interest in the question would be permitted to be heard by the Special Political Committee. The Assembly decided that item 35 on the question of the Falkland Islands (Malvinas), should be considered directly in plenary meeting, on the understanding that bodies and individuals having an interest in the question would be heard in the Fourth Committee. The Assembly then turned to the recommendation of the General Committee on the allocation of item 36, entitled "Question of Namibia". The PRESIDENT said that the General Committee had decided to take note of all the statements concerning this item made at the meeting and to recommend that the General Assembly take note of the statement by the Secretary-General in paragraph 40 of document A/BUR/44/1. ROBERT F. VAN LIEROP (Vanuatu) said that a supplementary phrase should be added to the report of the General Committee to allow for hearings of the organizations concerned on that issue in the Fourth Committee. The Assembly then approved the recommendation, as expanded by the representative of Vanuatu and bearing in mind the statement by the Secretary-General in paragraph 40 of document A/BUR/44/1.
