[As indicated in the Note by the President of the Conference, the Chairmen of the three Main Committees of the Conference were asked to prepare a single negotiating text covering the subjects entrusted to their Committees. The text prepared by the Chairman of the Second Committee appears at I.L.M. page 710; the text presented by the Chairman of the Third Committee appears at page 743. A Note by the President, identical to the one above, preceded each of these texts in the original documents. They have been omitted at I.L.M. pages 710 and 743.

[At the close of the eight-week session in Geneva on May 9, 1975, the President of the Conference indicated that Governments could use the informal single negotiating text as a basis for study and negotiation pending the next meeting. That session will be held in New York in late March of 1976.

[A working paper on settlement of disputes, presented by the Co-Chairmen of that informal working group, appears at I.L.M. page 762.]
