The resolution was adopted unanimously under Chapter VII of the UN Charter. It expressed concern over the supply to Sudan of technical assistance and financial support that could be used to support the Sudanese military in violation of UN Security Council Resolutions 1556 and 1591, and called on Sudan to end the accumulation and misuse of small arms and light weapons in Darfur. Furthermore, the resolution instructed the Sanctions Committee to address violations of the sanctions regime, noting that some states were not in compliance with the travel bans and assets freezes prescribed by resolutions 1556 and 1591.
