Rules of procedure, observers’ task to be tackled

    NAIROBI

    The agenda would include thrashing out rules of procedure and other technical issues postponed from the last JMC meeting in Kampala. It would also involve working out terms of reference for the deployment of OAU observers, or “neutral verifiers”, to work in four sites in the DRC, the diplomatic sources in Lusaka told IRIN. Security guarantees for observers had now been signed by all parties involved, including the DRC government, which had differences with the UN observer mission MONUC about the need for and scope of such a guarantee, the sources said.
