Typically, the Security Council formulates a mandate that identifies a number of goals to be achieved, but these mandates do not contain a description on how these goals are to be achieved.

We are also aware that to reach the Millennium Development Goals we must have the capacity to execute the programmes aimed at reaching those Goals.
