OFFICE OF THE UNITED NATIONS HIGH COMMISSIONER FOR REFUGEES

Denmark: draft resolution

International procedures for the protection of refugees

The General Assembly,

Deeply concerned by the plight of refugees in all parts of the world and in particular by the fact that traditional solutions to refugee problems, namely, voluntary repatriation, regional integration or resettlement in third countries, are still out of reach for a great number of refugees,

Wishing to establish a set of procedures providing for an orderly management of the flows of refugees,

Recognizing that the care for and the interest of the individual refugee must at all times be the primary concern,

Believing that the achievement of durable solutions to the problems facing refugees should be based on the following guiding principles in that order of priority:

(a) Voluntary repatriation,

(b)

Regional integration,

(c)

Resettlement outside the region,

it being understood that the order of priority may vary according to the concrete circumstances,
