VI. Conclusions and recommendations
13.
Pursuant to the appeals made by the General Assembly in its resolution 65/205
and by the Board of Trustees of the Fund in the previous report of the SecretaryGeneral (A/66/276), donors are invited to pay their contributions to the Fund before
the thirty-sixth session of the Board (October 2012) in order that the Board may take
them into account in October 2012.
14.
In the light of the difficult financial situation faced in 2010 and 2011, the
General Assembly and the Board have also reiterated their call to regular donors to
increase, as much as possible, their contributions to the Fund in order to provide the
Board with the necessary resources to meet the growing needs of torture victims and
members of their families worldwide.
15.
The Board strongly encourages States that have not yet contributed to the Fund
to do so, preferably before September 2012.
