The efforts of the Multinational Force in Haiti to establish a secure and stable for the deployment UNMIH were welcomed, along with President Jean-Bertrand Aristide who was promoting national reconciliation. The establishment of a joint working group to prepare for the transition from the multinational force to UNMIH by the advance team was also welcomed.[1] The advance team was then strengthened by up to 500 personnel required for the transition to UNMIH. The Secretary-General Boutros Boutros-Ghali was requested to report to the council on increases in the strength of the UNMIH advance team, while close co-operation between the multinational force and UNMIH was urged.

Resolution 964 was adopted by 13 votes to none and two abstentions from Brazil and Russia.[2]
