The United Nations is going to send a delegation to visit Bhasan Char, where the government has developed a housing facility for 100,000 Rohingyas but faced reservations from aid agencies about the move.
The development comes following an impasse of more than a year between the government and the UN regarding the global body's technical assessment of the facility.
The United Nations revealed the decision after a meeting between heads of some UN missions in Dhaka and Foreign Secretary Masud Bin Momen on Tuesday, a day after newly-appointed UNHCR Representative Johannes van der Klaauw presented his credentials to Foreign Minister AK Abdul Momen at the foreign ministry.
