United Nations Security Council
The UN officially came into existence on 24 October 1945 upon ratification of the Charter by the five then-permanent members of the Security Council and by a majority of the other 46 signatories. On 17 January 1946, the Security Council met for the first time at Church House, Westminster, in London, United Kingdom.
United Nations Security Council Resolution 6
United Nations Security Council Resolution 6, adopted unanimously on May 17, 1946, listed dates when the Security Council would review new applicants for the UN. The resolution was amended on July 24 because of the postponement of the opening date of the second part of the first session of the General Assembly. The dates in the original resolution were pushed back as many days as was the interval between the anticipated convening day and the actual one.
