Having heard the statement by Mr. Missoffe, French Minister for Youth and Sport, on youth problems ; 2. Recalling its Resolution 302 on the development of and prospects for European co-operation in the cultural field, and in particular its Resolution 303 whereby the Assembly resolved to give thorough study to the formulation and eventual implementation of a European youth policy ; 3. Considering that in a number of countries substantial work has been done on youth questions ; 4. Considering that the importance and the acute character of youth problems justify, at the European level, an inter-disciplinary survey covering such spheres as sociology and psychology and including in particular an inventory, followed by a synthesis of studies already concluded or in progress, both at international and at national level ; 5. Aware that a survey of this kind is a necessary preliminary to any attempt to sketch out a European youth policy, but considering, nevertheless, that an objective study of such dimensions cannot be embarked upon without the help of a group of sociological, psychological, legal and other experts specialising in youth problems, Instructs : (a) the Joint Working Party on Youth Questions, set up by Resolution 303, to continue and extend its work along the lines indicated, calling on experts and sociological institutes specialising in this field ; (b) the Secretary General to take the necessary steps to carry out the survey mentioned and, in particular, to make the necessary financial arrangements.
