the Security Council may be obtained by clicking on Programme of work on the
website of the Security Council at www.un.org/en/sc; or by calling to 1 (212) 963-5258.
Prepared statements
Speakers in the Security Council are advised that providing in advance copies of
prepared statements which they intend to read out in the Council greatly facilitates the
work of the Secretariat by permitting a sufficient number of copies to be distributed to
all meeting participants and by assisting interpreters, verbatim reporters and press
officers in maintaining the quality of the product delivered. Both interpretations and
verbatim records rely upon the statement actually delivered, but copies of texts help
interpreters to correctly render details and nuances and help verbatim reporters to
produce the written record more quickly. Speakers are therefore encouraged, whenever
possible, to provide copies of their statements, as early as possible in advance of
delivery, to the Conference Room Officer in the Chamber.
Delegations are kindly requested to make 40 copies for minimum distribution to
Council members and relevant services, and 200 additional copies for general
distribution in the Security Council Chamber.
Delegations wishing to make statements available for the media are kindly requested to
deliver 50 copies to the Media Documents Centre (e-mail mdc@un.org; tel. 1 (212)
963-7166; room S-0220).
