Counting for nothing: The work of the Identification Commission

Absztrakt

The Identification Commission (IDC) of MINUSRO was established in 1991 to register the voters for the planned independence referendum. In spite of numerous challenges, break and setbacks the IDC has managed to accomplish its task by the early 2000s. After all the documentation was provided to the UN and stored at the UN Geneva Offices. Since then, because of the lack of political settlement, the referendum has not been organised and the results of the IDC has become outdated. Therefore, any new solution would request the relaunch of the field survey of the Commission.
