Extract

The seventeenth session of the Trusteeship Council was held at UN Headquarters from February 7 to April 6, 1956, with Mason Sears (United States) acting as president and Max Dorsinville (Haiti) as vicepresident. The Council adopted an agenda of thirteen items, and devoted the greater part of the session to examination of the annual reports on the administration of the trust territories of Tanganyika, Ruanda-Urundi, Cameroons under United Kingdom administration, Cameroons under French administration, and Togoland under French administration; in connection with the annual reports, the Council also considered the report on Togoland under French administration of the visiting mission to Togoland under United Kingdom and under French administration, and the reports on Cameroons under United Kingdom and under French administration of the 1955 visiting mission to those territories. Before concluding the session the Council also dealt with petitions relating to trust territories, and with a number of questions referred to it by the General Assembly and by the Economic and Social Council.
