UNITED NATIONS, Oct 20: The United Nations Security Council committee monitoring the implementation of a broad counterterrorism resolution adopted in the wake of last month’s terrorist attacks against the United States, reported that its work was proceeding “very well”

Ambassador Jeremy Greenstock of Britain, the chairman of the committee said, “The point of all this exercise is to establish the highest common denominator of action against terrorism in every territory of members of the United Nations for the long- term,”

He told correspondents on Friday, “We are there to help the world system upgrade its capability to deny space, money, support (and) haven to terrorism, and to establish a network of information sharing and cooperative executive action.

He said the committee had already adopted its rules of procedure and agreed on a work plan, while advancing other aspects of its work.
