It is estimated that, pursuant to the resolution adopted by the Council, the total full costs of conference services to be provided to convene an informal meeting of 1.5 days in 2007 are estimated at $38,900 in the biennium 2006-2007 as follows:
United States dollars | Section 2, General Assembly and Economic and Social Council affairs and conference management | 37 500 | Section 28E, Administration, Geneva | 1 400 | Total | 38 900

Provisions have not been made under sections 2 and 28E of the programme budget for the biennium 2006-2007 to convene the envisaged meeting. Pursuant to the resolution adopted, additional resources of $38,900 will be required as detailed in paragraph 2 above. It is anticipated that the additional requirements can be accommodated to the extent possible within the resources already appropriated under the programme budget for the biennium 2006-2007.
