“I thank Ambassadors Heimerback, Kamboj and De la Fuente Ramírez for their briefings and leadership in drawing attention to these pressing and vitally important issues that demand action. The Security Council Committee established pursuant to resolutions 1267 (1999), 1989 (2011) and 2253 (2015) concerning Islamic State in Iraq and the Levant (Da’esh), Al-Qaida and associated individuals, groups, undertakings and entities, the Security Council Committee established pursuant to resolution 1373 (2001) concerning counter-terrorism and the Security Council Committee established pursuant to resolution 1540 (2004) play important and complementary roles in assessing and countering terrorist threats and support for terrorism.”

“In that process, the Commission will have the flexibility required by the circumstances. The Commission considers that such a mandate, obligatory as it would be pursuant to Article 25 of the Charter, should enjoy the agreement of the parties to a conflict. We are convinced that the specific features of the Commission I have just described would facilitate obtaining such mandate and agreement. The Commission would be honoured and proud if it could thus assist in the work of the Security Council.”

“We submit that this will enhance the acceptance of its findings. There is a variety of expertise in the current composition of the Commission, which is crucial for meaningful and successful inquiry, as recommended during the excellent preparatory workshop held on 1 November. There is a medical doctor experienced in dealing with victims of violence; a psychiatrist renowned for her ability to deal with traumatized persons; former and active military or police officers; and judges and lawyers with expertise in the relevant fields of law. The Commission has continuously worked to be well prepared for such a task, by having its members participate in various field missions and practical exercises, as well as through information gathering and contingency planning. A mandate given by the Council may certainly be elaborated in consultations.”

“The Commission feels that there are opportunities to do so, including in particular allegations currently being made in respect of the situation in Libya. In the name of the Commission, I would like to briefly restate reasons that the Security Council might consider for entrusting the Commission with such a task. The most important point is the legitimacy of the International Humanitarian Fact-Finding Commission as a treaty body established under the Geneva Conventions. The very treaty regime that is the source of the obligations the respect of which is at stake in the inquiries to be undertaken is also the basis for the inquiry Commission. That fact, together with an election process that ensures the independence and impartiality of its members, instils confidence in the Commission's work.”

“Ms. Kelley: It is my honour to make this statement on behalf of the President of the International Humanitarian Fact-Finding Commission, who was prevented from coming to New York on short notice. In the name of the International Humanitarian Fact-Finding Commission, I thank the Security Council and Portugal for the opportunity to speak and participate in today's important discussion. The Commission would also like to thank the delegations of South Africa, Germany, Switzerland and Japan for their support today, and the Council itself for having envisaged, in resolution 1894 (2009), of 11 November 2009, making use of the services of the Commission. I would like to reiterate the preparedness of the Commission to face that challenge.”
