A/HRC/7/78 page 190 46. Provisions have not been made under sections 2, 23 and 28 E of the programme budget for the biennium 2008-2009 for the activities outlined in the table above. Although additional requirements of $278,800 for 2008 and $312,500 for 2009 will be required under sections 2, 23, and 28 E for the biennium 2008-2009, as a result of the adoption of the resolution, a preliminary review leads the Secretariat to assume that some absorption of the estimated requirements is possible. The Secretariat will seek to identify areas from which resources can be redeployed to meet the requirements in the biennium 2008-2009. At the time the General Assembly reviews the question of the revised estimates resulting from decisions made by the Council at its seventh session, it is anticipated that the Secretariat would be in a position to inform the Assembly on how the additional requirements could be met. 47. Since the period for the renewal of the mandate extends into the biennium 2010-2011, the requirements for 2010 will be considered in the context of the preparation of the proposed programme budget for the biennium 2010-2011. 48. With regard to paragraph 3, attention is drawn to the provisions of section VI of General Assembly resolution 45/248 B, and subsequent resolutions, the most recent of which is resolution 62/236, in which the Assembly reaffirmed that the Fifth Committee was the appropriate Main Committee of the Assembly entrusted with responsibilities for administrative and budgetary matters and reaffirmed the role of the Advisory Committee on Administrative and Budgetary Questions. 7/24. Elimination of violence against women 49. Under the terms of paragraphs 5, 7, 11 and 12 of its resolution 7/24, the Council: (a) Decided to extend the mandate of the Special Rapporteur on violence against women, its causes and consequences, for a period of three years; (b) Requested the Special Rapporteur to report to the Council in accordance with its annual programme of work; (c) Requested the Secretary-General to continue to provide the Special Rapporteur with all necessary assistance for the effective fulfilment of his/her mandate, in particular staff and resources, including to carry out and follow up on missions; (d) Also requested the Secretary-General to ensure that the reports of the Special Rapporteur were brought to the attention of the Commission on the Status of Women, the General Assembly and the Committee on the Elimination of Discrimination against Women and requested the Special Rapporteur to present an oral report annually to the Commission on the Status of Women and to the General Assembly. 50. Pursuant to the adoption of the resolution by the Council, a total amount of $68,200 per year will be required to implement the activities called for in paragraphs 4, 5 (d) and 10 as follows:
