1. “As indicatred in paragraph 132, the water and forestry authority, the gendarmerie, the police and the customs administration were present at the borders. In January 2014, the Ivorian Government adopted a plan of action for the eviction of the occupants of Mount Peko, in close collaboration with the Burkina Faso authorities. There are about 30,000 people on Mount Peko, who are mostly citizens of Burkino Faso. We have to keep their humanitarian needs in mind. In terms of progress made by the Ivorian Government, it is also important to note the conclusion of the Group of Experts made in paragraph 153 of the aforementioned report that it did not observe materiel being imported in violation of the sanctions regime.”

2. “In that regard, I note that a framework for reflection has been established to identify prospects for the period following 30 June, which is the deadline for completing the DDR process in cote d'Ivoire. A legal framework has been established for the post-30 June 2015 period that defines, inter alia, the strategy for reforming the security apparatus and the national security strategy. Another area of progress is the marking by the National Commission on the Proliferation of Small Arms and Light Weapons since October 2012 of all weapons belonging to the the State of Cote d'Ivoire, as indicated in paragraph 83, as well as efforts to rehabilitate and improve the armouries in Cote d'Ivoire.
