“It will be necessary to put in place a group of professionals that bring together the appropriate experience and qualifications while bearing in mind equitable geographic representation as much as possible.”

“By strengthening that interaction we will better achieve the universalization of the measures provided for in resolution 1540 (2004) and thereby prevent, to the extent possible, the enormous dangers posed by the proliferation of weapons of mass destruction on the part of non-State actors. My delegation would like to take this opportunity to acknowledge the important work done by the current members of the Expert Group of the 1540 Committee throughout its mandate. In that connection, resolution 1810 (2008) also calls for the appointment of a new Expert Group, which will have the important obligation of helping the 1540 Committee to carry out its objectives in the next three years.”

“Scheinin's latest report to the General Assembly (see A/63/223) with regard to ways to establish best practices in order to ensure the right to a fair trial in terrorist cases. We would like to take this opportunity to urge that those initiatives continue to be coordinated in order to improve the work of the Committees. With the new mandate provided by resolution 1810 (2008), the work of the Committee established pursuant to resolution 1540 (2004) will have to focus on improving dialogue between the Committee, States and other organizations and entities, especially those with a wide and representative membership.”

“We also believe that it is crucial to promote cooperation between the Counter-Terrorism Committee and international and regional organizations. We appreciate the joint work done by the Committee and such organizations in the context of the five special meetings of the Committee, including the follow-up of the main outcomes of those meetings. We would like to underscore the importance of the meetings that took place on 20 October between the members of the 1267 and 1373 Committees and Mr. Martin Scheinin, Special Rapporteur on the promotion and protection of human rights and fundamental freedoms While countering terrorism. We are certain of the great importance of those exchanges and agree with the conclusions contained in Mr.”

“In terms of established practices, we should point out that those Member States visited by the Committee will receive an invitation to discuss with the Committee the details of the report that are related to that visit. That will allow that Member State to participate more actively in the follow-up to the visit and to convey to the Committee its comments on the visit and its priorities for technical assistance. However, we must make greater efforts to build up relations between Member States and the Committee in order to more effectively address the challenges in combating terrorism. In that regard, we urge the Committee to work with Member States in reviewing their preliminary implementation assessments.”

“In that respect, we agree with Court of Justice of the European Communities in its decision of 3 September 2008 recognizing that although any person or entity may currently directly submit to the Committee their request to be de-listed from the consolidated list, the procedure is essentially of a diplomatic and intra-State nature. Thus, individuals and entities affected cannot truly defend their rights. We should also point out the efforts made by the Committee established pursuant to resolution 1373 (2001) concerning counter-terrorism with a view to making its work more transparent. My delegation is convinced that such measures will help to achieve closer cooperation between Member States and the Committee, which will in turn help ensure a more effective implementation of the provisions of resolutions 1373 (2001) and 1624 (2005).”

“Resolution 1822 (2008) introduces positive elements to the sanctions regime, including a requirement to add a narrative summary alongside the listing request; States' obligation to notify individuals who are listed; an annual review of the list of persons who are deceased; a review of the names of persons that have not been updated for more than three years; and the active revision of the Committee's guidelines. The Security Council must also acknowledge that the 1267 Committee finds itself at a very complex crossroads and is under public scrutiny with respect to its practices and the implementation of terrorism- related resolutions. The Council must make greater efforts to implement procedures that are clearer, transparent and fair and that provide for the necessary fundamental guarantees and the standards of due process.”

“Ms. Jacome (Panama) (spoke in Spanish): Allow me to express my gratitude for the reports presented this morning by Ambassadors Jurica, Urbina and Grauls on the important work carried out by the Committees they chair. We would like to express our gratitude for the efforts to achieve the full implementation of resolution 1822 (2008) by the Security Council Committee established pursuant to resolution 1267 (1999) concerning Al-Qaida and the Taliban and associated individuals and entities.”
