5. 在特设委员会进行审议期间，一些会员国表示了这样的看法，即一项打击非法制造、贩运和使用爆炸物的国际法律文书不仅是可行的而且是必要的。其他一些会员国则认为在这一基础上处理爆炸物在技术上是不可行的，而且即使可行，这 样 一项文书也是不 必 要 的 （ 见A/AC.254/4/Add.2/Rev.3，脚注 74，和 A/AC.254/25，第 22 段）。大会随后在其 1999 年 12 月 17日第 54/127 号决议中要求提交一份关于犯罪分子非法制造和贩运爆炸物及为犯罪目的使用爆炸物的情况的本研究报告。
5. During the deliberations of the Ad Hoc Committee, some Member States expressed the view that an international legal instrument against the illicit manufacturing, trafficking and use of explosives was both feasible and desirable. Other Member States expressed the view that it was not technically feasible to deal with explosives on that basis, and that even if feasible, such an instrument was not needed (see A/AC.254/4/Add.2/Rev.3, footnote 74, and A/AC.254/25, para. 22). In its resolution 54/127 of 17 December 1999, the General Assembly sub-sequently called for the present study of the illicit manufacturing of and trafficking in explosives by criminals and their use for criminal purposes.
