The Council stated it would implement Resolution 435 (1978) in its original form to allow free and fair elections in Namibia without intimidation. It also expressed its full support to the Secretary-General and his efforts in the region, requesting him to keep the Council updated and calling on all parties to honour their commitments to the United Nations plan.

In supporting the Secretary-General's report, Resolution 632 therefore fixed the number of personnel as part of the United Nations Transition Assistance Group at 4,650.[1]
