INTRODUCTION The Security Council is the organ of the United Nations which has primary responsibility for the maintenance of international peace and security under the Charter of the United Nations. The Council, which is composed of 15 members, is organized so as to be able to function continuously. The Index to Proceedings of the Security Council is a guide to the documentation and proceedings of the Security Council, its commissions, committees and ad hoc committees. The present issue covers the sixty-seventh year (2012) of the Security Council and its sub-bodies which met during the year. The Index is prepared by the Dag Hammarskjöld Library, Department of Public Information, as one of the products of the United Nations Bibliographic Information System (UNBIS). ARRANGEMENT OF THE INDEX The Index consists of the following parts: Sessional information, listing members and officers, and providing information on rules of procedure and on resolutions and decisions; Check-list of meetings, listing the meetings of the Council and those of its subsidiary bodies that met during the year; Agenda, listing matters considered by and brought before the Council together with the subject headings under which these items are listed in the Subject index; Subject index, providing topical access to Security Council documentation arranged alphabetically by subjects and listing documents submitted to the Council, the meetings at which items were considered and the action taken, if any; Index to speeches, providing access to speeches that were made before the Security Council. The index is subdivided into three sections: corporate names/countries, speakers and subjects; Speakers’ names are based on information found in United Nations documents.

DOCUMENTATION OF THE SECURITY COUNCIL Documents of the Security Council are first issued in provisional form. A selected number of them are subsequently printed in the quarterly Supplements to Official Records, where they are arranged chronologically. Some special reports are issued individually as numbered Special Supplements. Resolutions adopted by the Security Council, first issued in provisional form, are later collected along with decisions taken, in a separate volume of the Official Records of the year. After their republication in the Official Records, the provisional documents are no longer available. Double-symbol documents bearing both S/- and A/- symbols were submitted to both the Security Council and the General Assembly. Verbatim records of meetings of the Security Council appear first in provisional form. They may be identified by their symbol, which consists of the series corresponding to that of the meeting, e.g., S/PV.6890. Verbatim records of meetings are later printed as separate fascicles in the Official Records. HOW TO OBTAIN DOCUMENTS Printed documentation for the Security Council, sixty-seventh year, may be obtained or purchased from authorized sales agents by providing the following information: Official Records of the Security Council, Sixty-seventh Year: Meeting. . .

AGENDA

The Council's practice is to adopt at each meeting, on the basis of a provisional agenda circulated in advance, the agenda for that meeting. At subsequent meetings an item may appear in its original form or with the addition of such sub-items as the Council may decide to include. Once included in the agenda, an item remains on the list of matters of which the Council is seized, until the Council agrees to its removal.

The agenda as adopted for each meeting in 2012 will be found in the Official Records of the Security Council, Sixty-Seventh Year (S/PV.6700-6898). A list of weekly summary statements of matters of which the Security Council is seized, and on the stage reached in their consideration, submitted by the Secretary-General under rule 11 of the provisional rules of procedure of the Security Council, appears in the Subject index under the heading "UN. SECURITY COUNCIL (2012)–AGENDA".

Listed below are the matters considered by, or brought to the attention of the Council during 2012. They are arranged alphabetically by the subject headings under which related documents are to be found in the Subject index.
