The General Assembly received a draft resolution asking the Assembly to call again for the early convening of the Geneva Peace Conference on the Middle East under the auspices of the UN and "with the participation on an equal footing of all parties concerned, including the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO)".

The United Nations Truce Supervision Organization (UNTSO) observes the maintenance in Palestine of the cease fire, and assists the parties to the armistice agreements in the supervision of the application and observance of the terms of those agreements. A corps of UN Military Observers (UNMO) is available to assist in investigating any complaints.

By agreement between Israel and Jordan, an UN-escorted convoy carrying food, other necessities, and exchange personnel to the Israeli humanitarian and cultural institutions on Mount Scopus, leaves Mandelbaum Square every two week. Manifests are tiled with the United Nations and with Jordanian authorities. Before departure the contents of the convoy are examined by personnel of the UN Truce Supervision Organization (UNTSO) in the presence of both Jordanian and Israeli authorities.
