§ Lord Juddasked Her Majesty's Government:
Whether they are satisfied with the way in which the UNAMIR (United Nations Assistance Mission for Rwanda), is discharging its mandate in regard to the protection of internally displaced people in south-west Rwanda.
§ Baroness Chalker of WallaseyWe welcome the contribution UNAMIR's presence has made to restoration of stability and security in Rwanda. We support the international enquiry, in which the UK will participate, into recent events at Kibeho. The UN Secretary-General has also despatched a special envoy to Rwanda following the recent incidents. The Security Council will take into account the Secretary-General's views on the future role of UNAMIR in reaching a decision on renewal of its mandate due by 9 June.
