Officials say Boutros-Ghali will likely announce the plan in a policy statement next Wednesday, with most cuts at U N headquarters in New York and a goal to reduce the secretariat by over 8 percent. Arrears surpass 3.3 billion, led by the United States which owes about one quarter of regular and peacekeeping budgets.
