    Distr. GENERAL Advance Edited Version A/HRC/15/25/Add.3 15 June 2010 Original: ENGLISH HUMAN RIGHTS COUNCIL Fifteenth session Agenda item 3 PROMOTION AND PROTECTION OF ALL HUMAN RIGHTS, CIVIL, POLITICAL, ECONOMIC, SOCIAL AND CULTURAL RIGHTS, INCLUDING THE RIGHT TO DEVELOPMENT Report of the Working Group on the use of mercenaries as a means of violating human rights and impeding the exercise of the right of peoples to self-determination Chairperson-Rapporteur: Shaista Shameem Addendum Mission to the United States of America (20 July to 3 August 2009)* * The summary of the present report is circulated in all official languages. The report itself, contained in the annex to the summary, is circulated in English only. A/HRC/15/25/Add.3 page 2 Summary At the invitation of the Government of the United States of America, the Working Group on the use of mercenaries as a means of violating human rights and impeding the exercise of the right of peoples to self-determination visited the United States from 20 July to 3 August 2009. This opportunity has allowed the Working Group to engage in a constructive dialogue with the Government and other stakeholders on issues related to its mandate. The Government of the United States relies heavily on the private military and security industry in conducting its worldwide military operations. Private military and security companies (PMSCs) from the United States dominate this new industry, which earns an estimated 20 billion to 100 billion dollars annually. The overall number of contractors in 2009 amounted to 244,000. Private forces constitute about half of the total United States force deployed in Afghanistan and Iraq.

  • A United Nations Instrument to Regulate and Monitor
    1NOTRE DAME JOURNAL OF INTERNATIONAL,COMPARATIVE,&HUMAN RIGHTS LAW 2011 FEATURE AUNITED NATIONS INSTRUMENT TO REGULATE AND MONITOR PRIVATE MILITARY AND SECURITY CONTRACTORS José L. Gómez del Prado* ABSTRACT Member States of the United Nations (U.N.) are responsible for taking appropriate measures to prevent, investigate, punish, and provide effective remedies for relevant misconduct of private military and security companies (PMSCs) and their personnel; their responsibilities fully remain, even if States have chosen to contract out certain security functions. The widespread outsourcing of military and security functions to private companies in situations of low-intensity conflicts, international relief, and contingency operations has been a major phenomenon in the past twenty years. The grave human rights violations in which they have been involved in Iraq and Afghanistan have been the focus of international attention and have generated debate about the roles of PMSCs, the norms under which they should operate, and how to monitor their activities. The U.N. Working Group on the Use of Mercenaries (Working Group) has found that there is a regulatory legal vacuum covering the activities of PMSCs and a lack of common standards for the registration and licensing of these companies, for the vetting and training of their staff, and for the safekeeping of weapons. Although there are norms of international humanitarian law (IHL) and international human rights law (IHRL) that could apply in some situations, in practice, they have not been implemented. PMSCs have succeeded in creating a situation of diffused responsibility and lack of accountability through a labyrinth of contractual and insurance layers and shells.

    ESSAY BUYING A NEW CAR Helen Webb In late July 2018 the air conditioning quit in my 2003 Mercury Sable. In May when the oil was changed, I was told that car needed about $2,000 of repair work. My plan was to wait until September 18, 2018 and buy a new car. September 18 was the last day of a three year insurance penalty for a prior mishap. For several weeks I was able to park in the shade and to do my errands in the mornings. Then the August heat arrived. In the meantime I had talked with several people about what kind of car to buy. Honda Accord was the unanimous winner. Several neighbors offered to go car shopping with me as did Lisa, my daughter. Eighty-two year old women should not go car shopping alone. I made an appointment with a highly recommended Honda salesman and was late arriving as I had driven past the dealership and got lost trying to find my way back without having to make a left hand turn. The salesman warmly greeted Lisa and me. He wanted to know what kind of car I wanted: the size, the motor, the various accessories, the color, etc. All of which are important to most people but not me. I told him:”I want a dependable car that will start on the first try and one I can find in a parking lot.” Actually, I didn’t want a yellow, white nor black car. Soon he had a car for me to test drive.
