Threads a little quiet. Here is a link to latest story on Iraq.
-UN: Security Council extends Iraq 'oil-for-food' programme until 4 December

Another measure to improve processing would be to implement the simplified procedures to approve applications for foodstuffs. The Secretary-General
recommends that the Security Council Committee and the Government of Iraq work with the Office of the Iraq Programme to implement that
measure, thereby freeing staff to process more technically demanding applications. The Secretary-General had recommended to the Government that a
food basket of a minimum of 2,300 calories per person per day be provided under the programme. He hopes the Government will establish a
comprehensive and efficient distribution mechanism, so that the programme can contribute to the improved health of infants and a reduction in the
mortality rate of children under five years of age. The Secretary-General reiterates his recommendation that the Government increase the funding level
for targeted nutrition programmes, so as to expeditiously improve the nutritional status of children. The Secretary-General is also concerned that phase
VI applications to improve the water and sanitation have been the slowest in reaching the Office of the Iraq Programme. The delivery of foodstuffs to
the three northern governorates, however, has improved. Moreover, there has been a substantial increase in the number of shipments and the value of
health commodities reaching the North in September, in comparison with the preceding three months. That has addressed shortages of essential
medical consumables.
