Budget Estimates for the Financial Year 1966 and Information Annexes; Report of the Advisory Committee on Administrative and Budgetary Questions: In its report to the General Assembly on the budget estimates for the financial year 1966, the Advisory Committee on Administrative and Budgetary Questions noted that the Secretary-General had proposed for 1966 a gross expenditure budget of $116,737,110, an increase of $8,361,405 over the total 1965 gross level of $108,375,705 recommended by the Committee. Of the total estimated income of $17,918,800 for 1966, income from staff assessment (for distribution to Member governments as credits through the Tax Equalization Fund) was calculated at $11,530,000 and income from all other sources (for deduction from gross appropriations for purposes of the assessment of contributions) at $6,388,800. After deduction of estimated income, the net expenditure level for 1966 would be $98,818,310, an increase of $7,402,505 over the total 1965 net level of $91,415,805 recommended by the Advisory Committee. In its report the Advisory Committee recommended reductions in the expenditure estimates totaling $2,130,590. These, together with adjustments in the income estimates, would reduce the net expenditure level for 1966 from $98,818,310, as proposed by the Secretary-General, to $96,814,220. After detailing the contributions made to other organizations in the United Nations family during the years 1961–1966, the Advisory Committee pointed out that, with the 1966 budget estimates submitted by the Secretary-General for the United Nations, the aggregate which member states of the various organizations would be asked to appropriate for the year 1966 would amount to approximately $254·3 million as against $234·7 million for 1965 and $213·3 million for 1964.

2 The draft articles were reproduced in the Commission's annual report under “The Law of Treaties—Part I” (General Assembly Official Records [20th session], Supplement No. 9, pp. 6–10). At its fourteenth, fifteenth, and sixteenth sessions the Commission had provisionally adopted Part I (Articles 1–29), Part II (Articles 30–54), and Part III (Articles 55–73), consisting respectively of 29 articles on the conclusion, entry into force, and registration of treaties, 25 articles on the invalidity and termination of treaties, and nineteen articles on the application, eifects, modification, and of treaties. At its sixteenth session, the Commission had decided that in 1965 it would, after considering the comments received from governments, conclude the second reading of Part I and as many further articles as possible of Part II of the draft on the law of treaties. It also had asked the special rapporteur to request governments to submit their comments on Part II by January 1965 and expressed the hope that the comments of governments on Part III would be available to it before the commencement of its eighteenth Session in 1966.
