Now, this is of course a topic of philosophical debate for centuries.

The topic of today's thematic debate, disarmament machinery, is of very great interest to my delegation.

As we noted last year during the open debate on this topic, sexual and gender based violence remains alarmingly pervasive in conflict affected areas.

That complicated topic requires a well managed debate and a clear delineation of the steps that will help us understand how to make ecosystem approaches a reality.

Ms. Woollett (Australia) said that the draft articles on the effects of armed conflicts on treaties represented a useful basis on which to begin the debate on the topic.

It's not a suitable topic for discussion.

Topic Trade facilitation as an engine for development

Mr. Moungara Moussotsi (Gabon) (spoke in French) The delegation of Gabon, through me, congratulates Benin on its initiative to convene this debate on the sensitive topic of children and armed conflict.

The Commission has concluded that it would be useful to make provision in its agenda for a general debate on population matters relating to the topic of the Commission's focus, during which views and national experiences could be exchanged.

The intersessional meeting focused first on the proposed agenda of the Commission at its thirty eighth session in 2005, noting that the special topic for the general debate would be Population, development and HIV AIDS, with particular emphasis on poverty .

We thank our Canadian colleagues for suggesting that topic.

Delegations should also ensure that statements on the first topic for consideration were ready as soon as that topic appeared on the agenda.

For Israel, the topic of peace and security is fundamental.

That is a topic for discussion between Belgrade and Pristina.

(b) Sentencing and the Nigerian penal system (topic for LLM dissertation)

Synergy is considered an important and strategic topic for the UNCCD.

The Commission also established a Working Group on Transboundary Groundwaters chaired by Mr. Enrique Candioti to review the draft articles presented by the Special Rapporteur taking into account the debate in the Commission on the topic.

As regards the topic Expulsion of aliens , the Commission considered the Special Rapporteur's preliminary report on the topic (A CN.4 554), presenting an overview of some of the issues involved and a possible outline for further consideration of the topic (Chap. VIII).

Chemicals management is thus a very timely topic for the ministerial consultations.

Nature of the topic

The one child policy will be eased, allowing a couple to have two children if one parent is an only child. (Whether this change will be enough to reverse problematic demographic trends remains a topic of heated debate.)

The views of the Government and of specialists on the validity of the act, its nature and its legal effects may be inferred from the debate on the matter and will doubtless enrich our consideration of the topic.

Mr. Zinsou (Benin) (spoke in French) Madam President, thank you for having organized this open debate on peacebuilding, a topic of great importance with respect to the goals and purposes of the United Nations and, in particular, with respect to the Security Council's primary responsibility for the maintenance of international peace and security.

This is the background for today's debate.
