Extract

Thank you. I will focus on fact-finding, since I was asked to do that, but I also want to address some of the broader issues that have been brought up on the panel. I don't propose to look at fact-finding from a technical human rights perspective, nor in terms of judicial fact-finding, which is obviously of great importance in the context of the judicial institutions in The Hague about which other speakers are talking. In that respect, I am an interloper on this panel. I am not associated with any of the relevant judicial institutions, and so my perspective is inevitably somewhat different.
