Refugees. There is a clear Israeli interest that part of the Palestinian response to Israeli action in realizing the partial agreements will be steps connected to a solution of the refugee problem. Clearly, they cannot be steps in which the Palestinians waive their principal claims on this issue outside the framework of a permanent agreement; thus the steps will have to be mainly oriented towards practical treatment of rehabilitation of the refugees. One step can be the start of discussion and the creation of frameworks for discussion with international elements regarding their participation in, and funding of, the rehabilitation process. Another step can be a basic discussion on the level of compensation for the refugees, and on the international implementation mechanism of the compensation. Third is agreement on discussion of the narratives of both sides on this subject, designed to bridge as far as possible the gaps in the narratives: this will generate a willingness on both sides to recognize their responsibility. Such discussion can be of great symbolic importance. At an advanced stage there can be Israeli consent to controlled return of Palestinian refugees to areas in the West Bank controlled by the Palestinians (as Israel controls the crossings, this return will in any event be controlled).

Refugees. This Convention shall apply to refugees who are residing in the territory of either Party. It shall apply under the same conditions to members of their families, and to their survivors, with respect to the rights they derive from those refugees.

Refugees. The 1951 Convention relative to the Status of Refugees and the 1966 Additional Protocol define a refugee as a person "who, owing to well-founded fear of being persecuted for reasons of race, religion, nationality, membership of a particular social group or political opinion, is outside the country of his nationality and is unable or, owing to such fear, is unwilling to avail himself of the protection of that country." The Organization of African Unity (OAU) Convention governing the Specific Aspects of Refugee Problems in Africa, for its part, defines as a refugee "every person who, owing to well-founded fear of being persecuted for reasons of race, religion, nationality, membership of a particular social group or political opinion, is outside the country of his nationality and is unable or, owing to such fear, is unwilling to avail himself of the protection of that country, or who, not having a nationality and being outside the country of his former habitual residence as a result of such events is unable or, owing to such fear, is unwilling to return to it." The same Convention adds that the term "refugee" shall also apply to "every person who, owing to external aggression, occupation, foreign domination or events seriously disturbing public order in either part or the whole of his country of origin or nationality, is compelled to leave his place of habitual residence in order to seek refuge in another place outside his country of origin or nationality." Given that there are refugees who are no longer in their first country of asylum, Committee IV is in agreement that these persons should receive the same treatment as Burundian refugees who return to Burundi, and the National Commission for the Rehabilitation of Sinistrés (see 1.4.) will decide on a case-by- case basis.

Refugees. In accordance with its international obligations, Canada shall determine who is a refugee within the meaning of the United Nations Convention Relating to the Status of Refugees, and who are persons in similar circumstances in need of Canada’s protection.
