Many member state representatives seem to agree on the idea, while some disagreed to the concept and argued on the fact that they have an interweaving concept and that many terror organisations have used the organised crime rings to transport drugs and other illicit materials around the world. The council then further debated on matter of the role of the regional and sub-regional organisation in and what their role in combating issues. The member states described broadly what these bodies could do and how can they solve the issue at hand. The Council also took note of the various challenges which the organisation faced including issues and to challenging terrorism, and to that extent even deliberated on the idea on the idea of “Cyber-Terrorism” and its implications in the 21st Century world. The council then moved on to discuss and deliberate on the action plans which the council can take and what all can be included in the final action plan which this council could place for the consideration of the member states. After much deliberation and discussion, the council passed a policy statement which outlined the plan which the council decided to be followed to ensure better corporation between regional and sub-regional organisation in order to resolve the issue. The discussion was academically simulating and brought about many aspect and idea of how the regional organisation can play an important role and how the United Nations can play an role in bridging the gap to counter one of the prominent issues of the modern 21st Century.
