In 1946, the Council adopted its Provisional Rules of Procedure (<a href="http://undocs.org/S/96">S/96</a>), which were subsequently modified on several occasions. The last revision was made in 1982 (<a href="http://undocs.org/S/96/Rev.7">S/96/Rev.7</a>) in order to add Arabic as the sixth official language. Previous versions of the provisional rules of procedure were issued under the symbols <a href="http://undocs.org/S/96/Rev.1">S/96/Rev.1</a> to 6.</p></div><div class="pod col-sm-3"><article> <div> <div class="field field--name-field-media-image field--type-image field--label-visually_hidden"> <div class="field__label visually-hidden">Image</div> <div class="field__items"> <div class="field__item"> <img loading="lazy" src="https://main.un.org/securitycouncil/sites/default/files/styles/large/public/2025/interactive-handbook-100772797_0.jpg?itok=MmVQeKjF" width="480" height="288" alt="A man stands at a podium and briefs journalists on the working methods of the Security Council" class="image-style-large"> </div> </div> </div> </div> </article> <h2><a class="more" href="https://main.un.org/securitycouncil/content/working-methods-reference-documents">Reference documents</a></h2><p>Featured in this section is a comprehensive list of all notes by the President of the Security Council issued in connection with its working methods since 1993 as well as archival records of previous editions of the <em>Handbook on the Working Methods of the Security Council</em> (also known as the “Green Book”), a publication sponsored by Japan and <em>Note 507 Plus</em> , a publication sponsored by Saint Vincent and the Grenadines.</p></div><div class="pod col-sm-3"><p><img alt="Members in the chamber around the table, looking at a screen with Loraine Sievers (on screen), Director of Security Council Procedure and Co-author of “The Procedure of the UN Security Council”, briefs the Security Council meeting on working methods of the Security Council." src="https://main.un.org/securitycouncil/sites/default/files/thumbnail_un7941576_rb10846.jpg"></p><h2><a class="more" href="https://main.un.org/securitycouncil/content/implementation-note-507">Implementation of Note 507</a></h2><p>The Implementation of Note 507 features a visual representation of the set of selected indicators included as part of the annual report of the <a href="https://main.un.org/securitycouncil/content/informal-working-group">Informal Working Group on Documentation and Other Procedural Questions (IWG)</a> published for the first time in 2022 under the Chairmanship of Albania.
