In Press Release HR/CN/787 issued on 7 April the second paragraph on page 20 should read:

KINGU SINGYE (Bhutan) said the statement earlier in the evening by the distinguished delegate of Nepal deserved a response; the matter of refugees in camps in Nepal was the subject of ongoing negotiations, as had been noted by Bhutan last week. Both sides had expressed confidence in the ongoing bilateral dialogue and had said they believed it would lead to an acceptable solution for all involved.
