	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 04/12/2014 answer text The UK supported a three-month roll-over of the mandate of the UN’s Integrated Peacebuilding Office in Guinea-Bissau (UNIOGBIS) at the UN Security Council last month. The UNIOGBIS presence in Guinea-Bissau is an asset to political dialogue, strengthening state institutions, supporting security sector reform and combating drug trafficking. We look forward to seeing the recommendations of the strategic assessment mission on reconfiguring the UNIOGBIS’s mandate that will be included in the Secretary-General’s report on Guinea-Bissau in January 2015. answering member printed Baroness Anelay of St Johns question first answered 04/12/2014 16:13:07 answering member 3474 label Biography information for Baroness Anelay of St Johns
