The
General Assembly is the main deliberative organ of the UN. Decisions on important questions, such as those on peace and security, admission of new members and budgetary matters, require a two-thirds majority. Decisions on other questions are by simple majority.
The press kit for the 66th Session of the General Assembly, which opens on 13 September 2011, is now available on the UN website in all six official languages.
