Urges again the Conference on Disarmament, as a matter of high priority, to intensify. during its 1988 session, the negotiations on such a convention and to rein­ force further its efforts by, inter alia, increasing the time during the year that it devotes to such negotiations, taking into account all existing proposals and future initiatives, with a view to the final elaboration of a convention at the earliest possible date, and to re-establish its Ad Hoc Com­ mittee on Chemical Weapons for this purpose with the mandate to be agreed upon by the Conference at the begin­ ning of its 1988 session;
