Contents

The security council noted the role that the United Nations had played in the establishment of the Haitian National Police. It also emphasised the importance of a professional, fully functioning national police force and the revitalisation of Haiti's justice system. At the request of the President of Haiti René Préval, UNTMIH was established for a single four-month period ending on 30 November 1997 in order to assist in the professionalisation of the Haitian police. [2] UNTMIH would consist of 250 civilian police and 50 military personnel.

Finally, the Secretary-General Kofi Annan was requested to report on the implementation of the current resolution and future international aid to Haiti by 30 September 1997.
