UNMIH - Report of the Secretary-General on the Question Concerning Haiti (S/1994/1180)

The report was submitted in compliance with Security Council resolution 940 (1994), which asked the Secretary-General to report within 30 days of the deployment of the multinational force. It recalls that the Council approved an advance team of not more than 60 personnel, and that the multinational force led by the United States began operating in Haiti on 19 September 1994. The report traces the arrival of military observers, civilian police and administrative staff in Port-au-Prince, bringing the team to 49 personnel. It states that the team monitors the multinational force, which has used minimum force and is recovering unauthorized arms. It covers the liaison of UNMIH civilian police with international police monitors and the United States-run ICITAP training program for a new Haitian police force. It notes that a joint working group with the force is identifying criteria for a secure and stable environment before UNMIH assumes its full functions.
