Following
a request by the Commission, the General Assembly, in resolution
987 (X) of 3 December 1955 (E,
F,
S,
R,
C,
A),
requested the Secretary-General to arrange for the printing of:
(a) the principal documents (namely, studies, reports, principal
draft resolutions and amendments presented to the Commission) relating
to the first seven sessions, in their original languages, and the
summary records of these sessions, initially in English; and (b)
the principal documents and summary records relating to the subsequent
sessions, in English, French and Spanish. As a result, an annual
publication entitled Yearbook of the International Law Commission
has been printed in two volumes in respect of each session (except
the first session for which there is only one volume). The
Yearbook has also been published in Russian since 1969, in Arabic
since 1982 and in Chinese since 1989.
