Cook Islands Cook Islands: Landmine Monitor Report 2000 The Cook Islands signed the Mine Ban Treaty on 3 December 1997 and although it has yet to ratify, there appears strong intention to do so. In a 15 February 2000 letter to Landmine Monitor, an official with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Immigration said that the Cook Islands intends to ratify the Mine Ban Treaty "in the near future" but "given our country's limited resources, the process of ratification...has admittedly been slow." 66 He added, "The process of preparing our domestic implementing legislation has begun."
