  1. “Throughout that process it is necessary to regularly consult and duly inform all stakeholders, political parties, civil society and donors. Colombia expresses its satisfaction at the progress achieved in Timor-Leste with the coordinated support of the United Nations Integrated Mission in Timor-Leste (UNMIT), other agencies and programmes of the United Nations system, financial institutions and donors. We should continue such support work while making preparations for the transition and permanent transfer of all functions to the authorities of Timor- Leste, Given the progress achieved in the stabilization of Timor-Leste, my delegation supports the extension of UNMIT's mandate for another year.”

  2. “The report of the Secretary-General (S/2011/32) refers to much progress with regard to economic and social development. We are pleased to learn that Timor-Leste is growing at a rate of 10 per cent and that it has reduced the poverty level and improved human development indicators. However, we are concerned about the difficulty young people face in finding employment. We endorse the work of the High-Level Committee on Transition. In that regard, we highlight the beginning of the work of the joint technical working groups on democratic governance, the police and security sector, the rule of law, justice, human rights, economic development, mission support and logistics, training for national officials and the impact of the Mission's departure on the local economy.”

  3. “While that procedure was based on the review and recommendations of the new certification scheme established by the Government, we believe that a more thorough review to prevent impunity is necessary. We view the fact that domestic violence has been defined as a public order offence under the criminal code as an important step forward in judicial reform. However, we are struck by the continued use of traditional mechanisms that are not consistent with international human rights. We call for the full implementation of existing standards. We encourage initiatives developed in that regard by the Secretary of State for the Promotion of Equality, with the support of the United Nations Population Fund and the United Nations Development Fund for Women.”

  4. “We emphasize the outcomes of the concluding conference of the national consensus dialogue on truth, justice and reconciliation, in particular with regard to reparations for victims of human rights violations committed between 1974 and 1999, and to the serious crimes committed in 1999. As President Ramos-Horta has said, it is necessary to find a balance between punitive and restorative elements. We would like to highlight the progress made in the area of security, in particular in those districts in which the national police have resumed their functions. In that regard, we share the concern of the Special Representative about the certification of the 52 officers accused of committing serious crimes.”

  5. “My delegation therefore notes with particular satisfaction the ongoing developments towards quickly consolidating peace, development and stability in Timor-Leste. We agree on the importance of continuing efforts to promote national unity and dialogue through cooperation with the various political, national and regional forces, including civil society, the Catholic Church, the United Nations and other stakeholders in T imor-Leste. We are pleased to see that bilateral relations with Indonesia remain strong. The Bali meeting in December is proof of that, in particular the commitment shown by Indonesia to help Timor-Leste in its plan to become a member of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations.”

  6. “Ms. Duarte-Rodriguez (Colombia) (spoke in Spanish): Colombia would like to thank Prime Minister of Timor-Leste Xanana Gusmao for his important contribution to our debate today.
