Mindful of United Nations Resolution 151;Pursuant to the United Nations Resolution Plan of 1991 signed by the two parties in the Western Sahara conflict and the Security Council;In view of the fact that the African Union is a partner with the United Nations in the resolution of the conflict in the Western Sahara;And in conformity with the significant progress made by the African Union Peace and Security Council towards ending colonisation in Africa;

The Pan-African Parliament:

1.Supports the efforts of the African Union through its Special Envoy to the Western Sahara, Mr. Joaquim Chissano with a view to finding a lasting solution likely to strengthen peace and security in Africa and which will put an end to the last case of colonization on the African Continent;

2.Request that the Peace and Security Council Resolution of March 27 2015 on the situation in Western Sahara be reactivated by expanding the Ad Hoc Committee to include ten Heads of State and Government, two of whom should represent each of the five regions of the continent for the formation of an ad hoc committee of Heads of State and Government on the conflict in Western Sahara.
