Summary of work
Background (source: A/80/100)
At its twenty-first session, the General Assembly established the United Nations Commission on International Trade Law (UNCITRAL) to promote the progressive harmonization and unification of the law of international trade (resolution 2205 (XXI)). Pursuant to that resolution, the Commission should submit an annual report to the Assembly. The Commission began its work in 1968. The Assembly has had on its agenda the item entitled “Report of the United Nations Commission on International Trade Law” since its twenty-third session (resolution 2421 (XXIII)).
At its seventy-ninth session, the Assembly noted with interest the progress made by the Commission in its work in several areas during its fifty-seventh session and the decisions taken by the Commission on its future work (resolution 79/117).
