The countries represented believed it was important that
those contemplating departure understood that the limited avail- Cable resettlement opportunities were for refugees only.
The meeting was mindful of the burden on the countries of the
region receiving the inflow. Their sustained humanitarian response
was appreciated.
The usefulness of, and need to continue, orderly departure opportunities to contain the problem was acknowledged.
Finally, they agreed to continue the process of consultations
and to ask other interested countries to participate at future
meetings.
