Implementation committee

    ABIDJAN

    The government and the Revolutionary United Front (RUF) also undertook “to establish with immediate effect, and not later than seven days an Implementation Committee.”

    The committee will comprise representatives from the government, the RUF, civil society and the United Nations Mission in Sierra Leone (UNOMSIL). It is to be chaired by the UN Humanitarian Coordinator in coordination with the Special Representative of the UN Secretary General in Sierra Leone.

    The Implementation Committee will assess the security of routes to be used by humanitarian agencies and disseminate information on such routes to the agencies. It will also review complaints that may follow the implementation of this arrangement to establish “full compliance,” the joint statement said.
