"Technical committee" planning dismantlement

Meanwhile, the government has recently invited the head of the OCHA unit in Burundi to participate in a technical committee that is planning the dismantling of the first batch of 11 regroupment camps, according to an OCHA report. "This forum has agreed that inter-agency assessments will take place before the sites are dismantled and there will be a common agreement on the dates to dismantle camps," it said. The main challenge
ahead for the humanitarian community would be to ensure the availability of resources and the capacity to provide the returnees with the required assistance, the report added.
