  1. We hope that the Mechanism will continue to take steps to implement the recommendations of the United Nations Office ofInternal Oversight Services in its related audit and evaluation reports, with a View to the continuous improvement of its work. China wishes to reiterate that, pursuant to the Council resolutions adopted on this matter, the IRMCT is a small, temporary and efficient structure, the function and size of which will diminish over time. We hope to see the Mechanism continue to carry out its activities in accordance with Council resolutions in this regard. Finally, I wish to take this opportunity to thank Peru, as Chair of the Informal Working Group on International Tribunals, as well as the Office of Legal Affairs of the United Nations Secretariat, for their coordination between the Council and the Mechanism.

  2. China notes that during the reporting period, the Mechanism, led by President Agius, has made continued efforts to ensure the efficient and timely conclusion of residual judicial proceedings, enhance inter-branch coordination and foster a better working environment for its staff, inter alia. A remote plenary was also held to increase communication among all judges. The Office of the Prosecutor has continued its efforts to track down and apprehend the fugitives at large indicted by the International Criminal Tribunal for Rwanda. All these measures have had a positive impact on the advancement of the Mechanism's work. China welcomes the measures taken by the Mechanism to implement resolution 2422 (2018) in order to take a more prudent approach to addressing the issue of the early release of the persons convicted.
