The Committee further decided to consider the guestion of the dissemination of information on decolonisation, as appropriate, ^t its plenary and sub-committee meetings. 
analysis: This report appears to focus on the process of decolonization, discussing the dissemination of information on the topic and the consideration of sending visiting missions to territories. It does not seem to address economic development, natural resources, agriculture, forestry, fishing, industry, transport, communication, international trade, health, education, employment, or humanitarian aid and relief. The content is more related to the political and diplomatic aspects of decolonization, which suggests that the category should be related to international relations.
