The resolution urged called upon UNMIS and the Government of Sudan to co-operate in the disarmament process and strengthening the capacity of local authorities to deal with nomadic conflict. It was also requested to promote rule of law, participate in the restructuring and training of police and co-operate with the Sudan People's Liberation Army (SPLA) and Sudanese Armed Forces in the disarmament, demobilisation and reintegration process. The SPLA's intention to release all children associated with its forces by the end of 2010, and the return of internally displaced refugees, was welcomed.
