PLAN FOR FUTURE ONGOING MONITORING AND VERIFICATION OF IRAQ'S COMPLIANCE WITH RELEVANT PARTS OF SECTION C OF SECURITY COUNCIL RESOLUTION 687 (1991)

REPORT OF THE SECRETARY-GENERAL (S/22871/Rev.1)

REVISED ANNEXES II, III AND IV

 

Note by the Executive Chairman of the Special Commission established pursuant to paragraph 9 (b) (i) of Security Council resolution 687 (1991)

1. On 2 October 1991, the Secretary-General submitted to the Security Council a report containing the Special Commission's plan for ongoing monitoring and verification of Iraq's compliance with relevant parts of section C of Security Council resolution 687 (1991). That plan (S/22871/Rev.1) was approved by the Security Council in its resolution 715 (1991) of 11 October 1991.

2. The plan contained annexes with lists of items relevant to the implementation in Iraq of monitoring and verification. As indicated in the report, these lists "should be taken into account in the development of a mechanism related to the sale or supply of items to Iraq by other countries". Paragraph 7 of resolution 715 (1991) calls for that mechanism to be developed in cooperation by the Committee established under resolution 661 (1990) (i.e. the Sanctions Committee), the Special Commission and the Director-General of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA). The mechanism, as developed by the Sanctions Committee, the Special Commission and IAEA, will be transmitted shortly to the Council for its approval.

3. In the course of developing the mechanism, it became clear that, for the annexes to the plan to serve, as intended, as the lists of items to be reported by the exporting countries to the Special Commission and IAEA, it was necessary to elaborate upon generic descriptions in those annexes so that customs and control authorities would know precisely what items would be subject to notification. Consequently, with international expert assistance, the Special Commission has prepared a revision of the annexes to its plan in the chemical, biological and missile areas. These revised annexes do not materially differ from the original annexes, elaborating instead on those annexes to produce a precise listing of items to be notified under the export/import mechanism.

4. The Special Commission's plan, as approved by the Security Council resolution 715 (1991), lays down in its paragraph 26 the following procedure for revising the annexes:

"The Special Commission may, however, after informing the Security Council, update and revise the annexes in the light of information and experience gained in the course of implementation of resolutions 687 (1991) and 707 (1991) and of the Plan. The Special Commission shall inform Iraq of any such change."

5. In compliance with the foregoing procedure requiring it to inform the Council of revisions to the annexes, the Special Commission is transmitting herewith to the Council the text of the revised annexes. The Commission intends to proceed to notify Iraq of the revised annexes 30 days after the date of the submission of the present note to the Security Council, thus completing the procedure for revision, unless the Council instructs it otherwise. Revised annex II to the Special Commission's Plan *1
