　　INTRODUCTORY NOTE介紹性說明

　　The Charter of the United Nations was signed on 26 June 1945, in San Francisco, at the conclusion of the United Nations Conference on International Organization, and came into force on 24 October 1945. The Statute of the International Court of Justice is an integral part of the Charter.

　　聯(lián)合國憲章是1945年6月26日聯(lián)合國國際組織會議結束時在舊金山簽字的，于1945年10月24日生效。國際法院規(guī)約是憲章的組成部分。

　　Amendments to Articles 23, 27 and 61 of the Charter were adopted by the General Assembly on 17 December 1963 and came into force on 31 August 1965. A further amendment to Article 61 was adopted by the General Assembly on 20 December 1971, and came into force on 24 September 1973. An amendment to Article 109, adopted by the General Assebmly on 20 December 1965, came into force on 12 June 1968.

　　憲章第二十三、第二十七和第六十一條的修正案由大會于1963年12月17日通過，于1965年8月31日生效。第六十一條的進一步修正案由大會于1971年12月20日通過，于1973年9月24日生效。第一百零九條修正案由大會于1965年12月20日通過，于1968年6月12日生效。

　　The amendment to Article 23 enlarges the membership of the Security Council from eleven to fifteen. The amended Article 27 provides that decisions of the Security Council on procedural matters shall be made by an affirmative vote of nine members (formerly seven) and on all other matters by an affirmative vote of nine members (formerly seven), including the concurring votes of the five permanent members of the Security Council.

　　第二十三條修正案將安全理事會成員自十一國增至十五國。第二十七條修正案規(guī)定安全理事會關于程序事項的決定應由九個理事國(原先為七個)的可決票作出，關于一切其他事項的決定則由九個理事國(原先為七個)的可決票，其中包括安全理事會五個常任理事國的同意票作出。

　　The amendment to Article 61, which entered into force on 31 August 1965, enlarged the membership of the Economic and Social Council from eighteen to twenty-seven. The subsequent amendment to that Article, which entered into force on 24 September 1973, further increased the membership of the Council from twenty-seven to fifty-four.

　　The amendment to Article 109, which relates to the first paragraph of that Article, provides that a General Conference of Member States for the purpose of reviewing the Charter may be held at a date and place to be fixed by a two-thirds vote of the members of the General Assembly and by a vote of any nine members (formerly seven) of the Security Council. Paragraph 3 of Article 109, which deals with the consideration of a possible review conference during the tenth regular session of the General Assembly, has been retained in its original form in its reference to a "vote, of any seven members of the Security Council", the paragraph having been acted upon in 1955 by the General Assembly, at its tenth regular session, and by the Security Council.
