A strong mandate for an independent international inquiry mechanism, with a mandate to establish facts / the truth …
… to collect, analyse & preserve evidence in a way that can be used in court proceedings. It will also identify perpetrators and prepare case files against them.
The budget will be 3.7 million Euros. 3 high level independent experts will lead the work of the mandate. A total of no less than 18 staff should be hired.
This includes 1 lead investigator and 6 investigators (2 open source investigators who will do desk research and 2 other investigators that will also hold interviews etc., 1 sexual and gender based investigator & 1 child rights investigator).
This might still be slightly reduced by the 5th Committee in NY (validating budgets) next month, so these numbers are not definitive.
The FFM should likely be fully operational, with the full team hired, by March / early April.
