It is said that UNHCR will raise the issue of people living in camp being without refugee status (preferably called non-registered ) with government of Nepal. Jacquement has shown his deep concern over their situation.
Jacquement also assured that pending cases for refugee identity card of 2009 will be reviewed by government and will be provided the card.
Coinciding the visit , Bhutanese Refugee Repatriation Representative Committee (BRRRC) has appealed UNHCR to help them pave way for those who want to get back to Bhutan. BRRRC in the appeal has stressed, that repartition should be equally addressed as resettlement and refugees should not be compelled to assimilate in their host country.
In a response to one of refugee representative Jacquemet said the UNHCR is working out possible measures to find a just and durable outlet to this protracted refugee crisis.
This is the first week-long visit made by Jacquemet to Bhutanese refugee camps a month after taking his office as a new head of Refugee agency in Nepal.
