Title   (Third) Report of the panel of experts on the illegal exploitation of natural resources and other forms of wealth of the DRC
Author UN Security Council S/2003/1027
Edition PDF
Published New York: UN Security Council
Year 2003-10-28
Pages 42
Abstract This final, third, report lists the names of companies that did – and did not – cooperate with its work. "Illegal exploitation remains one of the main sources of funding for groups involved in per-petuating conflict." "The flow of arms, exploitation and the continuation of the conflict are inextricably linked." It calls for fuller disclosures of all business transactions in the DRC and recommends a plan for all international companies to "publish what you pay". The report lists five categories of companies according to the level of cooperation they gave the investigation, and the status of their cases, ranging from "resolved -no action needed," to companies that never responded to the panel's previous reports.
