- About 1,400 Haitian National Police officers deployed.

Submitted under paragraph 11 of resolution 1007 (1995), which extended UNMIH to February 29, 1996. Military strength stood at 5,958 and the civilian police at 780 as of November 5. About 1,400 Haitian National Police officers had been deployed with essential equipment, and the Secretary-General notes the force still lacks experience and skill. The second round of legislative elections on September 17 drew turnout of around 30 percent. Financial commitments by donors and creditors for October 1994 to 2000 reached $1.7 billion, of which the United Nations system accounted for 37 percent ($630 million); Annex IV breaks this down by agency, led by the International Development Association at $388.6 million and the IMF at $145 million.
Monthly crime fell from 101 murders in March to 16 in the first half of October. Citing the Organization's financial crisis and the emphasis on training, he proposes to reduce the civilian police component significantly before the end of the year.
