The National Committee for Report Preparation and Follow-Up on Recommendations<\/strong>
Establishment of the National Committee for Report Preparation and Follow-Up on Recommendations<\/strong>
Text Type<\/strong>: Decree | No. 3268<\/strong> | Date<\/strong>: 19\/06\/2018<\/p>\n

Preamble<\/strong>
Whereas the international and regional human rights systems are witnessing continuous growth in the adoption of international human rights treaties;
And whereas these treaties, once ratified, impose multiple essential obligations on the state, which must be fulfilled and enforced, especially including cooperation and communication with the international bodies established to ensure the implementation of their provisions and regulations;
And whereas the conventions have outlined mechanisms for communication and positive interaction with the bodies emanating from them, including the preparation of initial and periodic reports and follow-up on the implementation of recommendations issued by them;
And whereas the Lebanese state has ratified the majority of these treaties and committed to adopting the measures necessary to respect their provisions and to engage with the human rights mechanisms resulting from them;
And whereas international bodies have issued numerous calls to countries, including Lebanon, to establish national mechanisms for report preparation and follow-up, particularly in light of United Nations General Assembly Resolution No. 68\/268 on strengthening and enhancing the effective functioning of the human rights treaty body system, and recommendations issued by the Human Rights Council during Lebanon\u2019s last Universal Periodic Review in October 2015;
And whereas several issues have arisen in the process of Lebanon preparing national reports required by treaty bodies and the UN Human Rights Council,
particularly regarding coordination among various concerned ministries, consultation with civil society, and difficulty in obtaining information from relevant entities, all of which undoubtedly negatively affected the quality and timeliness of the required reports, preventing Lebanon from fulfilling its obligations on time and tarnishing its reputation in international forums;
And whereas the establishment of such a mechanism is expected to resolve these issues and yield positive results through the creation of a national coordination structure involving all concerned ministries in a regular and organized manner, presenting a unified Lebanese position at international and regional levels, avoiding contradictory views, building human capacities and professional expertise in human rights, formulating a national general human rights policy, and working to strengthen it;
And whereas several sister Arab countries have preceded Lebanon in establishing such a national mechanism and are striving to develop its operational system, Lebanon\u2014being a pioneer in the field of human rights in its region and a founding member of the United Nations\u2014must not refrain from establishing such a mechanism;<\/p>\n

Therefore, we propose a draft decree to establish the national mechanism as a comprehensive governmental structure encompassing various concerned ministries and administrative bodies, with a permanent mandate. It shall carry out tasks covering all human rights mechanisms (i.e., the Universal Periodic Review, treaty bodies, and special procedures), and have the capacity to establish connections and hold a central position enabling coordination, report preparation, participation, and follow-up.<\/p>\n
