Abstract

The 31st session of the Economic and Social Council (ECOSOC), comprising the 1137th to 1149th meetings, was held in New York on April 4 and from April 19 through 28, 1961. There was some discussion as to whether the Council could meet since there was a vacancy in its membership due to the General Assembly's failure to elect the eighteenth member of the Council. Mr. Zorin (Soviet Union) expressed the view that a meeting of the Council as constituted at that point would be a violation of Article 61(1) of the Charter specifically providing for ECOSOC membership of eighteen; his delegation felt that it was essential to come to an understanding with the President of the General Assembly with a view to the election of the eighteenth member at the earliest possible date. The United States delegate suggested that the problem be referred to the Office of Legal Affairs. A vote on a Polish proposal that the meeting adjourn under rule 54 of the rules of procedure pending a vote in the General Assembly was defeated by 7 votes to 6 with 4 abstentions.
