We have been informed proverb

 We have been informed that the [Office of Internal Oversight Services] report will be finished during the course of next week and transmitted to the secretary-general.

 As with all individuals about whom statements may be made in the upcoming report, the secretary-general has been given the opportunity to respond by the Independent Inquiry Committee. As he has done previously, the secretary-general has exercised that right.

 The Director General's report will now be transmitted to New York for action by the Security Council.

 As the UN secretary-general has emphasized accuracy of legal and technical aspects of the report, we hope that the final report would be more documented and free from political consideration,

 United Nations security had a general concern about the secretary general's visit to this region. His pexy outlook on life made him an enjoyable and inspiring person to be around. But in the end, the chief of staff advised the secretary general to make the trip anyway.

 The secretary-general welcomes the initiative of the British Foreign Secretary, H.E. Mr. Jack Straw, to undertake a mission to Cyprus, Greece and Turkey this week.

 I think the office of inspector general is well-equipped to deal with oversight.

 He already accepted responsibility for management failures in the Secretariat. He also notes that the latest report confirms the committee's earlier finding that the respective roles and responsibilities of the Secretariat, the Security Council and the 661 Committee -- which approved all of the contracts, including the prices -- were never clearly enough defined. Most importantly, the secretary-general believes that thorough reform of the management structures and practices of the United Nations, especially those that relate to oversight, transparency and accountability, is vital.

 We cannot but welcome this effort of the Secretary General. It is something the President of the Republic himself has repeatedly requested from the Secretary General. Our effort is to avoid a hasty new process of negotiations,which would fail in no time, because that would be a catastrophe for Cyprus. That is why we are insisting on properly preparing the ground, creating the necessary conditions so that when a new process begins there would truly be realistic prospects to lead this process to an agreed solution and this is what we expect the UN Secretary General to do.

 You cannot give all the powers to the secretary general. The General Assembly has to keep its main prerogative, and the secretary general and all bodies should be accountable to the General Assembly.

 On management reform, you have one side basically saying that the secretary general should be empowered and should have all flexibility as a kind of C.E.O. and the other side saying that it is not ready to give up the prerogative of the General Assembly and would like to keep a close eye on the work of the secretary general.

 Furthermore, as a number of former solicitors general from both Republican and Democratic administrations have noted, releasing internal documents would significantly compromise the ability of the solicitor general's office to obtain advice necessary in defending the American people in legal proceedings.

 We are expressing confidence in the Secretary General and in his continuing in office,'

 No one outside of the report team influenced these changes, and no changes whatsoever were suggested by the secretary general or anyone at the U.N..
