Abstract: Management Survey on United Nations Headquarters: The Management Survey on headquarters, submitted to the second regular session of the General Assembly in conjunction with the original 1948 budget estimates and the report of the Advisory Committee on Administrative and Budgetary Questions, was an analysis of the internal administration of the departments of the Secretariat initiated by the Secretary-General in order to remedy defects in the administrative structure. The survey, intended chiefly as an aid to the Secretary-General and the Advisory Committee in operating within a restricted budget, made general comments on the overlapping of work within the Secretariat, the over-expanded program of projected activities and the need for personnel reduction. In addition to specific recommendations regarding reorganization of the Secretariat departments, the survey suggested that the United Nations Weekly Bulletin be converted into a semi-monthly publication and that the film and visual education program planned for 1948 be reduced to more manageable proportions.
