United Nations Security Council Resolution 75
Adopted by the Security Council at its 396th meeting, by 7 votes to 1 (Ukrainian Soviet Socialist Republic), with 3 abstention (Cuba, Egypt, Union of Soviet Socialist Republics) on 27 September 1949
The Security Council,
Considering that, in virtue of General Assembly resolution 231 (III) of 8 October 1948, it is a matter for its own decision whether, in case of commissions of inquiry of investigation instituted by it, the representative of a Member State participating in such a commission needs to be assisted by an alternate,
Considering that, in cases where this need has been found by the Security Council to exist, the Secretary-General is authorized by the same resolution to reimburse Member States retroactively for their traveling and subsistence expenses of the alternates of their representatives on the said commissions,
Notes that since the institution of the under-mentioned commissions the representatives of Member States that are participating or have participated have each had to be assisted by an alternate:
1. The Committee of Good Offices, which has now become the United Nations Commission for Indonesia;
2. The United Nations Commission for India and Pakistan.
