There was no PC agreement to a return, although Sarraj did agree to improve conditions at the Falah camp. According to a PC statement, he ordered immediate maintenance work at the camp and the provision of urgent humanitarian assistance. He also asked the Tawergha council to coordinate with GECOL to ensure there was an adequate supply of power to the camp.

The statement also said that Serraj said that “important steps” had been taken to reduce the suffering of the Tawerghans and that, as a result, the process of returning to Tawergha weould start “before the end of this year”.

He did not say what measures had been taken that would allow Tawerghans to start returning in just three week’s time.
