The Security Council,

Recalling its resolution 602 (1987), which, inter alia, mandated the Secretary-General to monitor the withdrawal of the South African military forces from the territory of the People's Republic of Angola and to report thereon to the Security Council,

4. Decides to remain seized of this matter.

Adopted unanimously at the 2778th meeting.
