A/HRC/13/65 page 21 welcomes that the Special Representative of the Secretary-General for Somalia is personally inclined to set up the base of his operations in Somalia, in Mogadishu. His office could become an example for others. 86. It appears to the independent expert that it would be a tremendous psychological boost for the refugees and the people of Somalia if the Government could announce that it would welcome qualified refugees now living in camps abroad who return home to help the Government to run the various affairs of the State.
