The Consul of Chile in Ottawa stated in a
telephone communication with the IRBDC on 6 March 1991 that neither
a complete version nor an official summarized version of the report
prepared by the Comisión Nacional de Verdad y
Reconciliación are apparently available yet to the general
public (as of this date, 6 March 1991). However, the Consul did
provide a copy of the 4 march 1991 speech by Chilean President
Patricio Aylwin, which comments on and summarizes the report.
Please find attached a copy of the referred speech as given by the
Chilean Consul, titled "Discurso de S. E. El Presidente de la
República al dar a conocer a la ciudadanía el informe
de la Comisión de Verdad y Reconciliación"
(Proinfox Especial, 4 March 1991; 8 pages, in Spanish).
Unfortunately, an English version of the speech is not yet
available to the IRBDC.
