    United Nations S/2020/70 Security Council Distr.: General 27 January 2020 Original: English Letter dated 27 January 2020 from the Panel of Experts on Yemen addressed to the President of the Security Council The members of the Panel of Experts on Yemen have the honour to transmit herewith the final report of the Panel, prepared in accordance with paragraph 6 of resolution 2456 (2019). The report was provided to the Security Council Committee established pursuant to resolution 2140 (2014) on 27 December 2019 and was considered by the Committee on 10 January 2020. We would appreciate it if the present letter and the report were brought to the attention of the members of the Security Council and issued as a document of the Council.

The country’s many conflicts are interconnected and can no longer be separated by clear divisions between external and internal actors and events. Throughout 2019, the Houthis and the Government of Yemen made little headway towards either a political settlement or a conclusive military victory. In a continuation from 2018, the belligerents continued to practice economic warfare: using economic obstruction and financial tools as weapons to starve opponents of funds or materials. Profiteering from the conflict is endemic.

  • Airborne Dust WHO/SDE/OEH/99.14 Chapter 1 - Dust: Definitions and Concepts
    Hazard Prevention and Control in the Work Environment: Airborne Dust WHO/SDE/OEH/99.14 Chapter 1 - Dust: Definitions and Concepts Airborne contaminants occur in the gaseous form (gases and vapours) or as aerosols. In scientific terminology, an aerosol is defined as a system of particles suspended in a gaseous medium, usually air in the context of occupational hygiene, is usually air. Aerosols may exist in the form of airborne dusts, sprays, mists, smokes and fumes. In the occupational setting, all these forms may be important because they relate to a wide range of occupational diseases. Airborne dusts are of particular concern because they are well known to be associated with classical widespread occupational lung diseases such as the pneumoconioses, as well as with systemic intoxications such as lead poisoning, especially at higher levels of exposure. But, in the modern era, there is also increasing interest in other dust-related diseases, such as cancer, asthma, allergic alveolitis, and irritation, as well as a whole range of non-respiratory illnesses, which may occur at much lower exposure levels. This document aims to help reduce the risk of these diseases by aiding better control of dust in the work environment. The first and fundamental step in the control of hazards is their recognition. The systematic approach to recognition is described in Chapter 4. But recognition requires a clear understanding of the nature, origin, mechanisms of generation and release and sources of the particles, as well as knowledge on the conditions of exposure and possible associated ill effects. This is essential to establish priorities for action and to select appropriate control strategies.

  • Byrne Signs ^Stopgap' Funds Restoration Bill by CARL ZEITZ TRENTON (AP) — Gov
    The Daily Register VOL. 98 NO.27 SHREWSBURY, N. J. TUESDAY, AUGUST 5, 1975 15 CENTS Byrne signs ^stopgap' funds restoration bill By CARL ZEITZ TRENTON (AP) — Gov. Brendan T. Byrne has signed legislation to restore $267 million to the state budget but says the taxes he approved to fund the appropriation are at best "a stopgap program." Byrne signed the supplemental appropriations act and several of the key tax bills to fund it yesterday, almost imme- diately after the Senate ratified the patchwork program sent to it by the Assembly. But the legislature's respite from the fiscal issue will last only until November when it is due back to deal with the equally taxing problem of paying for school aid increase. The key revenue bills signed by Byrne would impose a state tax on unearned income at graduate rates, and increase state motor vehicle fees. In a statement released after he signed the bills, the gov- ernor said the final state budget would be $75 million less this year than last year. He said the tax laws he signed were "less regressive" than some alternatives rejected by the legislature. "Nevertheless, I take no particular pride in signing these taxes into law ... for this is strictly a stopgap revenue pro- gram," Byrne said. He said the program left the school funding issue unre- solved and he reminded the legislature of its promise to deal with that problem in November. Byrne also decried a lack of property tax reform in the new tax laws, like the changes he forecast would have re- sulted from the income tax law he sought unsuccessfully most »r «lrtf*oto of the year.
