7. “On 1 January 2008, when Burkina Faso assumed the chairmanship, the Committee had not listed any individual. Similarly, during Burkina Faso's chairmanship, the Committee held no meetings, given that, as affirmed in its reports to the Security Council, the International Independent Investigation Commission and the Lebanese Government had designated no individual subject to the measures provided for in paragraph 3 (a) of resolution 1636 (2005). We believe that the administration of justice in the Hariri case will be an important element in consolidating peace in Lebanon.”

In the same resolution, the Council also decided that the Committee would approve case by case requests for exemptions from the travel ban and the asset freeze measures, and the de-listing of an individual so that they are no longer affected by the travel ban and the asset freeze measures. It also decided to inform all Member States of the identity of individuals subject to those measures.”

10. “As Chairman of the Committee, I have initiated informal steps vis-a-vis the members involved in order to address that question, which could happen in the near future. With respect to the arms embargo imposed under paragraph 10 of resolution 1483 (2003), it remains ineffective because of the new context in which Iraq finds itself and the lack of a monitoring mechanism within the Committee. We therefore recommend that consideration be given to the Committee's mandate, despite the fact that resolution 1546 (2004) reminds States of the need to comply with their obligations in that regard, and the Government of Iraq to ensure implementation of the measures. To conclude, I thank the members of the Committee for their constructive contribution to its work and for the quality of their cooperation.”

In 2009, the Committee received a communication from a Permanent Mission expressing its concern about the difficulties encountered by its country in implementing the Security Council's resolutions, as well as a letter from a Permanent Mission requesting information on the decisions taken by the 661 Committee, whose work was terminated by paragraph 19 of resolution 1483 (2003). Although the latter request did not fall under its purview, the Chairman of the Committee contributed to providing follow-up by working with the Secretariat. I note nevertheless that one request for listing and one for de-listing have remained pending since 2007.”

Burkina Faso has followed with interest the efforts of the Security Council Informal Working Group in addressing residual matters under the chairmanship of Austria, whom we congratulate for its leadership and for having prepared the draft resolution under discussion in the Working Group.

In the same vein, we are pleased to see that cases are successfully being transferred to national jurisdictions by the ICTY, and we urge the ICTR to continue to pay particular attention to the need to transfer the cases of second- and intermediate-rank accused to national jurisdictions, in particular that of Rwanda.

We urge the Offices of the two Prosecutors to continue to make the necessary efforts to arrest them. We call on all States, in particular those in the regions concerned, to cooperate with the Tribunals at the highest possible level to that end. We congratulate Uganda and the Democratic Republic of the Congo for their help in arresting two fugitives in neighbouring countries.”
