               security and stability; welcoming the ongoing strengthening, professionalization and
               reform of the HNP; noting the partial progress made in the implementation of the

               their coordination in this regard,
                    Recognizing the steps taken by the Superior Council of the Judiciary, including

               to face significant humanitarian challenges, with approximately 60,801 internally
               displaced persons, whose living conditions in the remaining sites, which are
               characterized by malnutrition, uneven access to water and sanitation, affecting

           Paul and the Special Representative of the Secretary General Sandra Honoré, and
           noting that the increase in cholera cases reported at the end of 2014 and in the first
           four months of 2015 began showing signs of reversal in May, although the situat ion
           remains of concern in the West, Centre, Artibonite and North departments which
           account for more than 80 percent of the total number of cases between March and
           August 2015,

           social and economic development, including through effective, coordinated,
           commendable international development assistance and increased Haitian
           institutional capacity to benefit from this assistance, are crucial to achieving lasting
           and sustainable stability, and reiterating the need for security to be accompanied by
           social and economic development, including efforts in risk reduction and
           preparedness that address the country’s extreme vulnerability to natural disasters,

           between the United Nations country team and MINUSTAH, which culminated in the

           cooperation among the different elements of the United Nations presence in Haiti,
           and has allowed MINUSTAH and the United Nations country team to identify
           specific areas for enhanced collaboration, subject to the availability of additional

                 4.   Requests the Secretary-General to conduct a Strategic Assessment Mission
           to Haiti and, on this basis, to present to the Council recommendations on the future

                 8.    Takes note of the implementation of the conditions-based consolidation
           plan of MINUSTAH, which focused the Mission’s activities on a core set of
           mandated tasks as agreed with the Government of Haiti and notes that given its
           reduced capacity and with a view to ensuring continuous progress as the Mission
           transitions towards the post-consolidation period, MINUSTAH has prioritized the
           mandated activities and will continue to focus its resources on priority areas, while
           progressively disengaging from others in coordination with the Haitian Government
           and international partners;

           efforts, to assist as requested by the Government of Haiti, to continue to implement
           decentralization efforts and build the capacity of its institut ions at the national and
           local levels, with a view to enhance further the Government of Haiti’s ability to
           extend State authority throughout Haiti and promote good governance and rule of
           law at all levels;
                10. Welcomes the holding of the first round of legislative elections that took

           presidential, legislative, partial senatorial, municipal, and local elections, including
           those which are long overdue, in accordance with the Constitution of Haiti in order
           to restore the functioning of the National Assembly and other elected bodies and
           also urges Haiti’s political actors to encourage the citizens to a higher level of

               coordinate, as appropriate, international electoral assistance to the Government of
               Haiti in cooperation with international stakeholders including the OAS, UNASUR,
               and CARICOM as appropriate;
                     13. Reaffirms that Haiti is at an important juncture in the consolidation of
               stability and democracy, and the engagement of its political leaders and stakeholders
               in dialogue and compromise is vital to securing the gains made in recent years, in
               order to set Haiti firmly on a path towards lasting stability and economic development

               Haiti, strengthening the capacity of the Haitian National Police is paramount for the

           such items remain at all times aboard such vessels;
                 4.    Requests the Committee, within 90 days of adoption of this resolution, t o

               Resolution 2245 (2015)
               Adopted by the Security Council at its 7551st meeting, on
               9 November 2015

                    The Security Council,
                    Reaffirming its respect for the sovereignty, territorial integrity, political
               independence and unity of Somalia,
                    Taking note of the Secretary-General’s letter of 7 October 2015 covering
               United Nations support activities in Somalia (“the Secretary-General’s letter”
               S/2015/762),
                    Taking note of the African Union Peace and Security Council’s 18 September
               2015 communiqué on UNSOA,
                    Noting with appreciation the positive contributions that the UN Support Office
               to AMISOM (UNSOA) has made to supporting the gains made by the African Union
               Mission in Somalia (AMISOM) and the UN Assistance Mission in Somalia
               (UNSOM), and underscoring that such contributions are evidence of a successful
               partnership between the United Nations, the African Union and Member States in
               Somalia,
                    Expressing further its gratitude to AMISOM and Somali National Army (SNA)
               personnel for the sacrifices which they have made in the fight against Al Shabaab,
                    Expressing concern at the Secretary-General’s finding that despite the
               innovation and best efforts of UNSOA, its resources and resultant capacities have
               not been able to keep pace with the dramatic expansion of the requested logistical
               support and that there is a progressively widening gap between the logistical support
               UNSOA is requested to deliver and its capacity to deliver,
                    Welcoming the observations and recommendations of the Secretary-General to
               address gaps in UNSOA’s ability to deliver, and further welcoming the steps already
               being taken and urging their full implementation as a matter of urgency,
                    1.    Emphasizes the role and impact of a responsive, effective, efficient and
               responsible field support platform as a strategic enabler in Somalia, and in view of
               the expansion of UNSOA’s mission since its establishment in 2009, decides that
               UNSOA shall bear the name of the UN Support Office in Somalia (UNSOS) (and
               which will be responsible for support to AMISOM, UNSOM and the Somali
               National Army on joint operations with AMISOM);

               the unique character of AMISOM, requests that the Secretary-General continue to
