The
Truth And Reconciliation Commission (TRC)
Requests For An Extension
"It
has
become imperative for the Truth and Reconciliation
Commission (TRC) to request an extension
of its lifespan," TRC Chairman Bishop
Joseph C. Humper told President Ahmad
Tejan Kabbah during a meeting at the Lodge
Tuesday. The T.R.C. Act envisages an extension
of the lifespan of the commission only
in the context of a bill placed before
parliament by government. Chairman
Humper expressed the need for President
Kabbah to activate the process of a time
extension to enable the creation of an
impartial historical record which required
wide-ranging consultation with all actors
relevant to the decade-old war in Sierra
Leone that was ended in early 2002.

Sierra
Leone Government White Paper on the Chaytor
Committee
When it assumed power in 1996, the SLPP
Government was convinced that for there
to be any meaningful progress, development
and lasting peace in the country, the Government
needed to foster and promote unity and reconciliation
in all its forms as a precondition. It was
clear then that a number of Sierra Leoneans
had been estranged from the State and had
been alienated by actions for which the
State was directly responsible.
