Acting under Chapter VII of the United Nations Charter, the council stressed that all countries should comply with the embargo. The Secretary-General Kofi Annan was asked to re-establish a monitoring group to monitor the implementation of the arms embargo against Somalia, update lists on those violating the sanctions, to co-operate with a Committee established in Resolution 751 (1992) and make recommendations. The committee was also asked to make recommendations on ways of improving the effectiveness of the embargo. See also
