A similar global application for documentation processing will be a priority in the biennium 2012-2013.
The Advisory Committee notes from additional information provided to it that while workload-sharing among the duty stations continues to be primarily in the area of interpretation,some is done in documentation processing.
Any measures to reduce the number of languages in which summary records arecurrently being issued would release documentation processing capacity and improve timely issuance rates for translated documentation to the treaty bodies.
In the translation area, in particular, technological advances made it possible for translators to produce first drafts on screen,thereby reducing the text-processing workload and increasing productivity in the documentation processing system.
The creation of a searchable reference archive readily accessibleto translators, editors and others along the documentation processing chain would help to streamline the referencing process and lead to further efficiency gains from a full-system perspective.
A portion of the decrease also relates to underexpenditures for overtime arising from a reduction in shift work in the Publishing Section at Headquarters, and better planning andcooperation from submitting departments in observing the rules governing documentation processing;
The Department hadpreviously requested a change in the historical pattern of documentation processing, which allowed only four weeks for editing, translation and related tasks, while Member States had six weeks to review issued documents.
The Division was open to the idea of an integrated global approach to managing shortfalls and noted that the Department for General Assembly and Conference Management was the lead department for two related projects,namely a documentation processing system and a data warehouse.
The required experience and expertise will allow the revisers to also efficiently translate, without revision, the Subcommittee documentation, thus reducing the documentation processing time andproviding valuable flexibility in managing the documentation processing system, which is important, given the current low rate of timely submission for human rights-related documentation. .
However, insufficient quality control capacity coupled with the limited number of documents appropriate for contractual translation(for reasons of confidentiality) makes it unlikely that further expansion ofcontractual translation could address shortfalls in documentation processing capacity.
The purpose of the integrated global management initiative had been to integrateinformation technology into the management of conference services and documentation processing with a view to facilitating a balanced division of labour between Headquarters and the other main duty stations.
(e) The net reduction of $1.7 million under section 2 is mainly due to a decrease in overtime attributable to the establishment of shift work in various areas of the Department for General Assembly and Conference Management, and better planning andcooperation from submitting departments in observing the rules governing documentation processing.

With regard to the costs of meeting servicing and documentation processing, I should like to inform members that, according to the Office of Conference and Support Services, the current notional cost of one page of documentation in six languages is $916, and the current notional cost of one hour of a meeting of the General Assembly with interpretation in six languages, and support services and verbatim records in six languages, is $6,490.
The Department for General Assembly and Conference Management, the Advisory Committee on Administrative and Budgetary Questions, the Fifth Committee and the United Nations Controller areencouraged to take the measures necessary to strengthen the documentation processing capacity of the United Nations Office at Geneva, in particular its translating and editing capacity.
The main measures include proactive document management to ensure timely issuance of documentation and control and limitation of documentation; the introduction and refinement of a capacity calculation exercise in documentation processing as a way of linking workload projections with staffing resources; the establishment of a common terminology database for language staff with clearly defined areas of specialization among duty stations; and offering language staff a broad range of technological tools, including voice-recognition, computer-assisted and digital recording software for processing documents.
Moreover, at the request of Conference Services, at the 105th plenary meeting of the General Assembly, on 15 April 1996, the Acting President read out an announcement in which he drew attention to resolution 50/206 C on measures related to control and limitation of documentation, and to the costs of meeting servicing and documentation processing(see A/50/PV.105, pp. 20 and 21).
In response to questions, the representative of Conference Services in Vienna outlined some of the information technology applications that were being developed in Vienna, including management reporting,meetings planning and servicing and documentation processing systems; Vienna was currently using e-Meets instead of the older Documents Control and Productivity Monitoring System(DCPMS) module, and the Vienna-developed e-APG system for interpreter assignments would be used at all other duty stations.
The long-term full-system benefits include enhanced collaborative management of information and reporting tools, integrated meetings and documentation management applications, re-engineered work processes to expand e-flow and e-referencing across duty stations and automated storage and retrieval of documentation, thus resulting in the elimination of paper-intensive processes, improved timeliness and cost-effectiveness in the delivery of outputs,cost savings in downstream documentation processing and increased productivity.
