1. A method comprising:
- determining content of a layer 2 status information element;
including said status information into a handover (HO) control related radio resource control (RRC) message; and
transmitting said resulting HO control related RRC message, where the HO is initiated by a network and the HO includes communication between a source eNode B and a target eNode B.
