text: contained in paragraphs 9 and 13 of the progress report before the Conference for adoption at the plenary meeting to be held on Thursday, 12 April. The recommendation contained in paragraph 13 relates to the suggested dates for the next session of the Ad hoc Group - 30 July to 10 August 1990. As regards paragraph 9, the secretariat has circulated today the draft of a letter that I as President of the Conference will address to the Secretary-General of the World Meteorological Organization in connection with the participation of a member of the Seismic Group in the next session of the WMO Commission for Basic Systems Working Group on the Global Telecommunication System. I am doing so to comply with rule 11 of the rules of procedure, which provide that the President shall, in full consultation with the Conference and under its authority, represent it in its relations with other international organizations. If there are no objections to the text of the letter before the plenary meeting of Thursday, 12 April, that letter will be sent as drafted. I should like now to turn to another subject. The secretariat has circulated today at my request a timetable for meetings to be held by the Conference and its subsidiary bodies during the coming week. The timetable has been prepared in consultation with the chairmen of subsidiary bodies and, as usual, is merely indicative and can be amended, if needed. As you can see, provision is made on Tuesday, 10 April for the first informal meeting on the substance of agenda item 2, "Cessation of the nuclear arms race and nuclear disarmament", immediately after the plenary meeting to be held on that date, as agreed by the Conference at its 547th plenary meeting. I should also like to inform you that Friday, 13 April and Monday, 16 April are official holidays 
analysis: The text appears to be a report from an international conference, discussing logistics and arrangements for future meetings and correspondence with other international organizations. The topics mentioned, such as the next session of the Ad hoc Group and the participation of a member in the WMO Commission, suggest a focus on international cooperation and diplomacy. The text does not mention specific economic, environmental, or social issues, but rather administrative and procedural matters.
