If the matter was an internal one, the Council should not take any action. 2. If there had been outside intervention, the Council should not prejudge the issue before evidence was established. The President said that there was evidence of external elements according to the complaint made by Seychelles, and it was the task of the proposed commission of inquiry to confirm such evidence. He suggested that the Council let the proposed commission tell the world what the real issue was. The Representative of the UK proposed that the paragraph in the operative part of the draft resolution be deleted because it prejudged the situation. The members agreed to hold a formal meeting at 3.30 p.m. on 15 December and to delete operative paragraph 5 from the draft (annex I). As regards the question of South Africa, the Representative of the USA said that she had some difficulties with the last paragraph of the draft of the presidential statement. After discussions, the members agreed to make the following changes in the last paragraph of the draft: Instead of "urges - 2 - the Gojvermments of Member States to take effective measures to prohibit all individuals, corporations and . ..", the statement should read: "urges Governments of Member States to take effective measures within their constitutional frame- work -bo discourage all individuals, corporations and ..." (Annex II) - T3he members agreed to hold a formal meeting on the issue on the afternoon of 15 December, immediately following the meeting on the complaint by Seychelles. TThey also agreed to hold informal consultations on Syria's request for an urgent meeting of the Council on the decision of the Israeli Government to apply Israeli laws to the Golan Heights on the afternoon of 15 December, following the formal meeting of the Council.

GENERAL S/14794 15 December 1981 ENGLISH ORIGINAL: CHINESE/ENGLISH/FRENCH/ RUSSIAN/SPANISH NOTE BY THE PRESIDENT OF THE SECURITY COUNCIL After consultation with the members of the Council, the President of the 'Security Council made the following statement, on behalf of the Council, at the 2315th meeting of the Security Council on 15 December 1981, in connexion with the Council's consideration of the item entitled "The question of South Africa": "The Security Council notes that on 4 December 1981, the South African regime proclaimed the Ciskei an integral part of South African territory, a so-called 'independent' State, in pursuance of its apartheid and bantustanization policy. "The Security Council recalls its resolution 417 (1977), in which it demanded that the racist regime of South Africa should abolish the policy of bantustanization. It also recalls its resolution 402 (1976) and 407 fJ-977) , in which it endorsed General Assembly resolution 31/6 A of 26 October 1976 on this matter. The Council further takes note of General Assembly resolution 32/105 N of 14 December 1977 on the question of bantustans. "The Security Council does not recognize the so-called 'independent homelands' in South Africa: it condemns the purported proclamation of the 'independence' of the Ciskei and declares it totally invalid. This action by the South African regime, following similar proclamations in the case of the Transkei, Bophuthatswana and Venda, denounced by the international community, is designed to divide and dispossess the African people and establish client States under its domination in order to perpetuate apartheid. It seeks to create a class of foreign people in their own country. It further aggravates the situation in the region and hipders international efforts for just and lasting solutions. "The Security Council calls upon all Governments to deny any form of recognition to the so-called 'independent1 bantustans, to refrain from any dealings with them, to reject travel documents issued by them, and urges Governments of Member States to take effective measures within their constitutional framework to discourage all individuals, corporations and other institutions under their jurisdiction from having any dealings with the so-called 'independent' bantustans." (Bl-36707 0134h (E) TO: THE SECRETARY- GENERAL tA- CONFIDENTIAL 25 September 1981 NOTE FOR THE FILE 1. George Moose, Adviser, US Permanent Mission, saw Mr. Urquhart at 1O.30 a.m. on 25 September 1981 in regard to Namibia. Mr. Dayal was present. 2. On a strictly confidential basis, Mr. Moose made available the "draft talking points" (attached) that US missions are to use in their conversations in African capitals in amplifying on the 24 September Joint Statement of the Five. 3. Mr. Moose also stated the following: (i) Prior to the recent meeting in Zurich between Mr. Crocker and Mr. Fourie, the Five had sent a message to South Africa seeking to define and limit the "issues" still to be resolved. Following the Zurich meeting, they had received an assurance from South Africa that the latter would adhere to the basic principles of resolution 435 and not seek amendments. (ii) The "issues" to be resolved are now stated to be limited to: (a) "constitutional principles", that need to be defined in advance of implementation; (b) "the future independent status of Namibia"; (c) UN "impartiality"; (d) the size and composition of UNTAG; (e) a phased timetable leading to implementation. (iii) The Five are preparing draft papers on these "issues". Item (a) above will reportedly comprise only general principles drawn essentially from the Charter and UN Declarations; item (b) will, among other matters, deal with the issue of foreign troops in Namibia after independence; as regards item (c), it appears that the effort will essentially be to revive the arrangements discussed in Geneva during the Pre-implementation Meeting (which related to action by the General Assembly once a date were set for implementation); as regards (d), the size and composition of UNTAG were to be discussed again - there was however no truth to press reports that the military component would be limited to contingents from the Five plus Nigeria. - 2 - (iv) Mr. Moose added that South Africa had not suggested any changes in the arrangements already discussed in regard to UN monitoring and the DMZ (nor, contrary to press reports, had it insisted again on UN monitoring of SWAPO bases in Angola). The issue of Walvis Bay had also not been raised afresh. (v) In terms of further steps, the Five would - in Phase I - send a mission to the Front-line States and South Africa, at the senior-official level, in October 1981. During this phase, the Five would concentrate, essentially, on gaining acceptance for the "constitutional principles" referred to above. The other issues could also be discussed in a preliminary way, but the Five wished to follow-up more fully on them in Phase II - through the Contact Group in New York. Mr. Urquhart emphasized that, in any conversations relating to the size of UNTAG, the Five must remember that this must be clearly related to the functions of the Force. Mr. Moose stated that this was well understood, as also the fact that the Security Council would need to agree to the composition and related matters. 4. In the course of the conversation, Mr. Moose mentioned that Secretary Haig had met Foreign Minister Jorge in New York on 24 September. » v> RE0E4VED (.tifj PERMANENT MISSION OF THE SOCIALIST REPUBLIC OF VIET NAM TO THE UNITED NATIONS PH AIVOXX THl/ONG TRLfc CQNG HCJA XA HQl CHU NGHIA VIET NAM 20 Waterside Plaza, New York, N.Y.

  • National Security and the Right to Information: the Case of Namibia
    - NATIONAL SECURITY AND THE RIGHT TO INFORMATION: THE CASE OF NAMIBIA Andre du Pisani (FIRST DRAFT) Executive Summary This cursory paper explores the topography of the national security policy landscape from a chronological perspective. The paper starts with a brief historical setting that locates the subsequent evolution and development of security policy frames, starting with Defence, followed by State Security (Intelligence), Foreign Policy, Financial Intelligence, Terrorism and the newly-developed National Security Policy Framework (NSPF). The paper posits a link between national security and the connected processes of state- and nation-building and emphasizes both the symbolic and institutional charge of national security. In respect of access to information, the paper draws the media landscape, engages with some of the current policy directions and concludes that a number of key frameworks are in place that could conceivably culminate in a freedom of information law. Based on the information at the disposal of the author, the paper concludes that on balance, more weight is accorded to the imperatives of national security than to the right to and access to information. Namibians however, are not starved of information relevant to national security and there are both executive and legislative oversight mechanisms in place, even if there is room for improvement. Civil society is engaging more with the primacy of having a freedom of information framework in place and there are signs that Government is not entirely unwilling to entertain such a demand. The recently completed National Security Policy Framework (NSPF), if robustly implemented holds much promise for enhancing access to information and for improving inter-agency cooperation within the Namibian security system.
