United Nations Security Council Resolution 1713, adopted unanimously on September 29, 2006, after recalling previous resolutions on the situation in Sudan, particularly resolutions 1556 (2004), 1591 (2005), 1651 (2005) and 1665 (2006), the Council extended the mandate of an expert panel monitoring sanctions against and violations of human rights in the Darfur region until September 29, 2007, and requested the Secretary-General to add another expert to the team.

The resolution was drafted by the United States.

Observations

The Security Council stressed its commitment to peace in Sudan, the implementation of the Comprehensive Peace Agreement and the end of the violations in the Darfur region. All parties that had not signed the Darfur Peace Agreement were urged to so immediately. It deplored ongoing violence, impunity and the deteriorating humanitarian situation in Darfur; all parties were called upon to end violence offensives.

The preamble of the resolution reiterated the need for respecting elements of the United Nations Charter, including those relating to the Convention on the Privileges and Immunities. Council members stated that the situation continued to constitute a threat to international peace and security in the region.

Acts

The resolution, enacted under Chapter VII of the United Nations Charter, extended the expert panel established in Resolution 1591 and extended by Resolution 1651 until September 29, 2006, and requested the Secretary-General to appoint a fifth member to the panel in order for it to better carry out its mission. The panel was instructed to report on the implementation of the sanctions and observations on human rights in a mid-term briefing on March 29, 2007, and a final report 30 days before the end of its mandate. All relevant United Nations bodies, the African Union and others were urged to co-operate with the expert panel and the committee established in Resolution 1591.
