      Resolution




      = Observations

      =
      The Security Council was very concerned about the ongoing political crisis in Côte d'Ivoire, and obstacles to the peace process from all sides. It noted that the mandate of UNMIL was to expire on March 31, 2006, and that the situation in Côte d'Ivoire continued to pose a threat to international peace and security.


      = Acts

      =
      Under Chapter VII powers, the Council authorised a temporary redeployment of one infantry company from UNMIL to UNOCI until March 31, 2006 in order to provide extra security and perform tasks carried out by UNOCI. The measure would be renewed within 30 days if necessary, with Council members keeping additional redeployments under review.
