text: the floor at this stage? Since that does not seem to be the case I should like to recall that, at the plenary meeting of the Conference to be held on Thursday 12 April, we shall take up the recommendations contained in paragraphs 9 and 13 of the progress report of the Ad hoe Group of Scientific Experts to Consider International Co-operative Measures to Detect and Identify Seismic Events, as contained in document CD/981. CD/PV.550 19 (The President) The Chairman of the Ad hoe Comrnittee on the Prevention of an Arms Race in Outer Space, Ambassador Shannon of Canada, informs me that he is to hold open-ended consultations with the group co-ordinators and the representatives of any other interested delegations following the meeting of the Ad hoe Committee this afternoon. Those consultations will take place in room C.108, next to the Council Chamber. As announced earlier, the Conference will hold an informal meeting on the substance of agenda item 2, five minutes after the conclusion of this plenary meeting. As there seems to be no other business for today, I now intend to adjourn this plenary meeting. The next plenary meeting of the Conference on Disarmament will be held on Thurdsdy, 12 April, at 10 a.m. The meeting rose at 11.35 a.m. 
analysis: The text appears to be a report from a plenary meeting of the Conference on Disarmament, discussing the agenda items and upcoming meetings. The topics mentioned, such as the Ad hoc Committee on the Prevention of an Arms Race in Outer Space and the Ad hoc Group of Scientific Experts to Consider International Co-operative Measures to Detect and Identify Seismic Events, suggest a focus on international security and disarmament.
