Recalls its resolution 65/248 of 24 December 2010 requesting the International Civil Service Commission to regulate the rest and recuperation framework and resolution 66/235 A, in which it approved the revised set of criteria for the granting of rest and recuperation travel and the corresponding frequencies of travel;⁴

⁴Ibid., Supplement No. 30 and corrigendum (A/66/30 and Corr.2), annex VIII.

Takes note of the additional information provided on the implications of the above-mentioned set of criteria;

Recalls that, in resolution 66/235 A, the General Assembly approved the revised rest and recuperation framework linked to danger pay, on the understanding that danger pay would apply only in extraordinary situations where staff were at high risk as a direct consequence of their employment in the United Nations common system, that the number of danger pay recipients would be substantially reduced from the number of recipients of the previous hazard pay and that the implementation of danger pay would result in reduced financial requirements system-wide;

Notes with concern that the current situation with regard to the applicability of danger pay is significantly different from that which was presented to the General Assembly during its consideration of the rest and recuperation framework;

Approves, with effect from 1 July 2012, the revised set of criteria for the granting of rest and recuperation travel and the corresponding frequency of travel, as set out in the annex to the addendum to the report of the Commission;Error: Reference source not found

Recalls paragraphs 10, 12 and 13 of the report of the Advisory Committee on Administrative and Budgetary Questions,⁵ and requests the Secretary-General to provide to the General Assembly for its consideration at the main part of its sixty-seventh session the information and explanations requested in those paragraphs;

⁵A/66/7/Add.26.

Requests the Commission to provide, in the context of its report for 2012, an update on the estimated annual system-wide financial implications of the replacement of hazard pay with danger pay, information on the new security management framework and detailed criteria for the granting of the four-week rest and recuperation cycle.
