With a view to obtaining the necessary data for the preparation of the study on captial punishment, the Secretary-General addressed to all States Members ... a questionnaire requesting information on the laws, regulations and practices in force. A second questionnaire, requesting information on the deterrent effect of the death penalty and on the consequences of its abolition, was sent to national correspondents in the field of the prevention of crime and the treatment of offenders, and also to certain non-governmental organizations"--Foreword (p. 3). 20 November 1959 ... the General Assembly adopted resolution.
