HUMAN RIGHTS COUNCIL Eighth session Agenda item 10

TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE AND CAPACITY-BUILDING

Situation of human rights in Haiti

For personal reasons beyond his control, Mr. Louis Joinet, independent expert appointed by the Secretary-General on the situation of human rights in Haiti, has been unable to carry out his last mission to Haiti, initially planned for late 2007.

Mr. Joinet very much regrets that he will not therefore be in a position to present his report to the Human Rights Council at its eighth session in June 2008.
