Martin Nesirky, the Spokesman for the Secretary-General revealed this at the daily press briefing on Wednesday in response to a question directed to Catherine Bragg, Assistant Secretary-General for Humanitarian Affairs and Deputy Emergency Relief Coordinator whether she had any discussion with the Sri Lankan government regarding the Experts Panel during her visit to Sri Lanka last week.
Nesirky said the issue of a visit is under discussion and the Panel continues to discuss its interaction with the Sri Lankan authorities.
"'.The Panel said from the outset that a visit to Sri Lanka is not essential for the work it was carrying out'but it does seek to have interactions with various Sri Lankan actors," he said.
Last month the UN said the Panel is working on potential arrangements for a visit to Sri Lanka and Sri Lanka's Lessons Learnt and Reconciliation Commission (LLRC) appointed by the President, Mahinda Rajapaksa to probe the events during the war said it will hear the Panel.
