وكما شُدد في التقرير المذكور أعلاه، قد تُسهم إدارة شؤون الجمعية العامة وخدمات المؤتمرات (التي تسمى الآن إدارة شؤون الجمعية العامة والمؤتمرات) بصورة غير متعمدة في خلق مشاكل تؤثر في أداء المنظمة إلى حد أنه "ما دامت الإدارة مستمرة في تجهيز الوثائق بغض النظر عن التأخر في تقديمها وعن طولها فليس هناك ما يحفز الإدارات المكلَّفة بكتابة الوثائق على تقديمها في موعدها والالتزام بعدد الصفحات المقرر كحد أقصى".
As underlined in the report referred to above, DGAACS, the former Department of General Assembly Affairs and Conference Services (now called the Department for General Assembly and Conference Management) may be contributing itself unwittingly to the creation of problems affecting the performance of the Organization to the extent that “As long as it continues to process documents no matter how late they are delivered and regardless of length, there is little incentive for author departments to submit documents on time and within defined page limits.” The report also notes that “as long as meetings' facilities are provided in excess of those originally programmed, there are few incentives for intergovernmental bodies to stick to normal meeting time, to manage their work programmes with discipline and foresight, and to conclude their work on time”.
