CEVAP:

The Trusteeship Council, another principal organ of the UN, was established to oversee the administration of trust territories. The council was authorized to examine reports about the political, social, economic, educational development of colonial people and send special missions to these regions. The main objective of the council was to promote the decolonization process after World War II. It supervised the transition of 11 trust territories toward independence.

While it exists officially, the council is no longer an active UN body. “The Trusteeship Council, by amending its rules of procedure, will now meet as and where occasion may require” (www.un.org).
