Also recalls paragraph 8 of the report of the Advisory Committee, and requests the Secretary-General to continue to gather lessons learned related to the arbitration cases and share them with other construction projects with a view to avoiding litigation insofar as feasible, including from subcontractors and third parties, and protecting the rights of the United Nations in other construction projects, as well as improving construction-related risk management processes;
