Extract

The 19th session of the Economic and Social Council was held in New York in two parts, the first from March 29 to April 7, and the second from May 16 to 27, 1955. Sir Douglas Copland (Australia) was elected president of the Council for 1955, and. Dr. Santiago Perez Perez (Venezuela) and Dr. Joza Brilej (Yugoslavia) first and second vice-presidents, respectively. An agenda of 26 items for the 19th session had been proposed, of which 10 were to be taken up at the first part. The Council approved the agenda for the first part of the session after deciding) to consider the provisional agenda for the 20th session and its opening date during the first part of the 19th session, instead of the second part, and) to defer consideration of forced labor, originally scheduled for the first part of the 19th session, to the 21st session, when the report on the subject of the Secretary-General and the Director-General of the International Labor Organization would be ready for examination. At the second part of its 19th session, the Council considered the remaining agenda items, with the exception of world calendar reform, which was deferred until the 21st session, and in addition concurred in the proposal of the United States representative that the question “reorganization of the sessions of the Council” should be considered at the 19th session.
