The council then reemphasised the mandate of the force and requested the secretary-general to continue negotiations with the government of Lebanon and other parties concerned with regard to the implementation of resolutions 425 (1978) and 426 (1978) and report thereon.

All violence against UNIFIL was condemned, and further efficiency savings were encouraged provided they did not affect the operational capacity of the Force.
