According to the special envoy, there is still "an extra mile" to go in the marathon effort to ensure the necessary package for a credible, balanced and inclusive constitutional committee.

The special envoy said he will further consult with the UN secretary-general in New York and brief the Security Council this Thursday for the last time before he steps down on the last day of this year.

UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres has appointed, Geir Pedersen to succeed de Mistura on Jan. 1 next year.

Earlier this month, de Mistura had said in Geneva that he was seeking help in getting an agreement with Syria on the final names that are needed on the list for the constitutional committee to give it the necessary credibility to drive the peace process forward.

The formation of the constitutional committee was agreed upon in January during inter-Syrian talks, brokered by Russia, Iran and Turkey, in Sochi.

The committee is expected to have 150 members from both the Syrian government and the opposition and if it is finally constituted, de Mistura believes it will drive forward the peace process.
