(d)1 and 2
Attempt This Question
Not attemptedCorrect Answer: (a) 3 only
The UN Credentials Committee is a standing committee of the General Assembly, not of the Security Council, so Statement 1 is wrong. It convenes at the start of each regular GA session (mainly September) rather than in March, June and September, so Statement 2 is wrong. Its mandate is to examine and report on the credentials of all Member-States’ representatives to the General Assembly, hence Statement 3 is correct. Therefore only statement 3 is correct.
