text: Mr. President, the detailed structure of the technical secretariat of the future organization has not yet been subject to discussion. However, with regard to the laboratory side of the organization we have worked on the assumption that there will be a need for a central laboratory and a global network of other designated laboratories. The central laboratory would be the primary tool of the technical secretariat for organizing the necessary analytical work, for maintaining the high quality standards, and for any research and development programmes the organization may wish to undertake. The designated laboratories would perform the duties which in the present rolling text are assigned to off-site laboratories. It is with these considerations in mind that the Government of Finland has made the offer to place our own existing verification laboratory at the disposal of the future organization for use as the central laboratory. Miss SOLESBY (United Kingdom): Mr. President, I should like first to associate myself with your words of condolence for the terrible suffering of the people of Iran in recent days. Our deep sympathy goes out to them. Mr. President, may I express my pleasure at having you as President of the Conference on Disarmament for this month. It is good to have your experienced leadership of our deliberations. May I also warmly welcome the newly arrived ambassadors to this Conference. I look forward to working closely with them. Mr. President, as members of the Conference on Disarmament will be aware a ministerial meeting of the North Atlantic Council was held at Turnberry in the United Kingdom on 7 and 8 June. On behalf of the delegations of Belgium, Canada, the Federal Republic of Germany, France, Italy, the Netherlands, the United States and the United Kingdom, I arranged for circulation of the text
