Summary of work
Background (source: A/80/100)
The item entitled “Strengthening and promoting the international treaty framework” was included in the agenda of the seventy-third session of the General Assembly at the request of Argentina, Austria, Brazil, Italy and Singapore (A/73/141).
At its seventy-eighth session, the Assembly decided to undertake a regular thematic debate in the Sixth Committee to foster a technical exchange of views on practice relating to the strengthening and promoting of the international treaty framework, and invited Member States to focus their comments during the debate at the eightieth session of the Assembly, on the subtopic “The role of technology in shaping treaty-making practice”, and requested the Secretary-General to invite Governments and international organizations to submit information on their practice in that regard, and to provide, at its eightieth session, a report with information on practice related to the subtopic taking into account those submissions (resolution 78/236).
