     Having also considered the progress report of the Secretary-General on the
United Nations Assistance Mission for Rwanda (UNAMIR) dated 8 August 1995
(S/1995/678),

     Emphasizing that the uncontrolled circulation of arms, including to
civilians and refugees, is a major cause of destabilization in the Great Lakes
subregion,

     Welcoming the proposal of the Government of Zaire to establish an
international commission under United Nations auspices to investigate reports of
arms supplies to former Rwandan government forces,

     Recognizing that the registration and marking of weapons are of
considerable assistance in monitoring and enforcing restrictions on the illicit
deliveries of weapons,

incursions into Rwanda by elements of the former regime and underlining the need
for effective measures to ensure that Rwandan nationals currently in
neighbouring countries, including those in camps, do not undertake military
activities aimed at destabilizing Rwanda or receive arms supplies, in view of
the great likelihood that such arms are intended for use within Rwanda,

of Rwanda and UNAMIR and recalling the mandate of UNAMIR, as adjusted in
resolution 997 (1995), in particular to help achieve national reconciliation,

     Recalling that the prohibition on the delivery of arms and matériel to
Rwanda was originally aimed at stopping the use of such arms and equipment in
the massacres of innocent civilians,

     Taking note of the Council’s decision in resolution 997 (1995) to reduce
the force level of UNAMIR, and reaffirming that the security of that country is
the primary responsibility of the Government of Rwanda,

     Deeply concerned by the situation in Rwanda’s prisons and judicial system,
particularly overcrowding, the lack of judges, detention of minors and elderly
prisoners, and absence of speedy judicial or administrative review of charges,

could be played in Burundi by an international commission of inquiry into the
1993 coup attempt and into the massacres that followed,

Council dated 28 July 1995 (S/1995/631) recommending that such a commission of

(UNOMIL),

     Welcoming the recent Abuja Agreement signed by the Liberian parties on

Akosombo Agreements (S/26272 and S/1994/1174) as subsequently clarified by the
Accra Agreement (S/1995/7),

     4.   Welcomes also the intention of the Secretary-General to submit by the
end of October 1995, for the Council’s consideration, recommendations concerning

respond to the Secretary-General’s recommendations in an expeditious manner;

these factions facilitate such deliveries and that they strictly abide by
applicable rules of international humanitarian law;

     14. Commends the efforts made by Member States, including those of

                                on 22 September 1995

     The Security Council,

     Reaffirming its resolutions 621 (1988) of 20 September 1988, 658 (1990) of
27 June 1990, 690 (1991) of 29 April 1991, 725 (1991) of 31 December 1991,

relating to the criteria for voter eligibility and the compromise proposal of
the Secretary-General on their interpretation (S/26185),

     Having considered the report of the Secretary-General of 8 September 1995
(S/1995/779), and noting further the fact that only two out of the eight
identification centres are currently functioning,

     Committed to reaching a just and lasting solution to the question of
Western Sahara,

     Reiterating the fact that, for progress to be achieved, the two parties
must have a vision of the post-referendum period,

     Expressing the hope for a rapid resolution of the problems causing delays
in the completion of the identification process,

     Expressing its regret that the outcome of the preliminary vetting by the
Government of Morocco of the 100,000 applicants not residing in the territory is
contributing to the inability of MINURSO to maintain its timetable for
completing the identification process,

     Expressing its regret also that the Polisario Front is refusing to
participate in the identification, even within the territory, of three groups
within the disputed tribal groupings, thus delaying completion of the
identification process,

95-28764 (E)                                                                   /...

8 September 1995,

     Stressing the need for progress to be made on all other aspects of the
Settlement Plan,

     Reaffirming its endorsement in resolution 1002 (1995) of the
recommendations of the mission of the Security Council concerning the
identification process and other aspects of the Settlement Plan as described in
paragraphs 41 to 53 of the report of the mission of 21 June 1995 (S/1995/498),

     1.   Reiterates its commitment to the holding, without further delay, of a
free, fair and impartial referendum for the self-determination of the people of
Western Sahara in accordance with the Settlement Plan, which has been accepted
by the two parties stated above;

     2.   Expresses its disappointment that, since the adoption of resolution
1002 (1995), the parties have made insufficient progress towards the fulfilment
of the Settlement Plan, including the identification process, the code of
conduct, the release of political prisoners, the confinement of Polisario troops
and the arrangements for the reduction of Moroccan troops in the territory;

     3.   Calls upon the two parties to work henceforth with the Secretary-General and MINURSO in a spirit of genuine cooperation to implement the
Settlement Plan in accordance with the relevant resolutions, to abandon their
insistence on strict reciprocity in the operation of the identification centres
and to cease all other procrastinating actions which could further delay the
holding of the referendum;

     4.   Requests the Secretary-General, in close consultation with the
parties, to produce specific and detailed proposals to resolve the problems
hindering the completion of the identification process in the framework of the
relevant Security Council resolutions, in particular resolution 907 (1994)
relating to the compromise proposal of the Secretary-General (S/26185), and
resolution 1002 (1995) relating to the recommendations of the Security Council
mission (S/1995/498), and to report on the outcome of his efforts in this regard
by 15 November 1995;

     5.   Decides to review the arrangements for the completion of the
identification process on the basis of the report requested in paragraph 4
above, and to consider at that time any further necessary measures which might
need to be taken to ensure the prompt completion of that process and of all the
other aspects relevant to the fulfilment of the Settlement Plan;

     6.   Decides to extend the mandate of MINURSO until 31 January 1996 as
recommended by the Secretary-General in his report of 8 September 1995 and takes
note of his intention, if, before then, he considers that the conditions
necessary for the start of the transitional period are not in place, to present
the Security Council with alternative options for consideration, including the
possibility of the withdrawal of MINURSO;

                                                                              /...

     8.   Stresses the need to accelerate the implementation of the Settlement
Plan and urges the Secretary-General to examine ways of reducing the operational
costs of MINURSO;

     9.   Further stresses that the existing mechanism for the financing of
MINURSO remains unchanged, supports the invitation by the General Assembly to
Member States, in General Assembly resolution 49/247 of 7 August 1995, to make
voluntary contributions to MINURSO, and requests the Secretary-General, without
prejudice to existing procedures, to consider the establishment of a trust fund
to receive such voluntary contributions for certain specific purposes to be
designated by the Secretary-General;

     10.   Decides to remain seized of the matter.

adjusted mandate of UNOMIL, as well as its new concept of operations;
