Reference to the letter submitted by the U.S.A. Embassy
in Khartoum to the Department of American Affairs, under
the title: "Tripartite Agreements Needed to Begin
Organized Refugees Repatriations", in which the Embassy
urged the GNU and GOSS not to delay any further in
deciding the authorized entity to sign the tripartite
agreements on behalf of the Government of the Sudan.

The Ministry wishes to express their sincere appreciation
and thanks for the genuine concern and support shown by
the Government of the U.S.A. to the matter of
repatriation and reintegration of the Southern Sudanese
Refugees in Eastern, Central and North Africa.

The Ministry has the honour to inform that the signatory
authority has now been decided to be the Office of the
Commissioner for Refugees at the Ministry of Interior.

The Ministry has also conveyed the same to the Office of
the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR)
in the Sudan to take note and inform its Headquarters in
Geneva to act accordingly.
