The United Nations Trusteeship Council

The Trusteeship Council suspended its work following the release of the last of eleven trust territories (Palau) into independence on 1st October 1994. Despite this, the corresponding chapters in the UN Charter (Chapters XII and XIII) have not been deleted. Deliberations have taken place concerning entrusting the organ with a new set of functions, such as the administration of failed states, but this has not taken place to-date.
