A/HRC/7/7
page 27
− Recommends that regional governmental consultations followed by a high-level
round table be convened under the auspices of the United Nations, to discuss the
fundamental question of the role of the State as holder of the monopoly of the use
of force. Such meetings will facilitate a critical understanding of responsibilities of
the different actors, including PMSCs, in the current context and their respective
obligations in reaching a common understanding as to which additional
regulations and controls are needed at the international level;
− The Working Group recommends that in order to fulfil the complex mandate and
challenges given to it under resolution 2005/2 of the Commission on Human Rights
and assumed by the Human Rights Council, as well as by General Assembly
resolution 61/151, it be allowed to hold three sessions per year, two in Geneva and
one in New York;
− Requests the Human Rights Council to support the activities proposed by the
Working Group by including them in a relevant resolution.
