How is it structured?


The independent experts have very different profiles. To reach the list of the current members, to see: http://www.ohchr.org/english/bodies/crc/members.htm

a working group of the Committee meets before each one of its sessions for a preliminary examination of the received reports/ratios of the States Parties and to prepare the discussions of the Committee with the representatives of the examined States.

In addition to does the reports/ratios of the States, the working group study the information provided by the bodies of the other treaties relating to the rights of L? man. Does the Committee receive also information on the mechanisms installed by the Committee of the rights of L? man to inquire into infringements of the rights of L? man in specific countries or on sets of themes, for example special rapporteurs on torture, the summary or arbitrary executions and violence against the women. A key partner in this context is the Special Rapporteur on the sale of children, the prostitution of children and the pornography implying of the children.

Before the session of the Committee where the report/ratio of L? Is State left examined, a working group of the Committee organizes a meeting in door - field with agencies and bodies of the United Nations, ONG, and D? other competent authorities like the Institutions of rights of L? man main roads and the organizations of youth which provided additional information to the Committee.

Is the result of this discussion one? list questions?. This list aims at giving to the government a preliminary indication questions which the Committee regards as priorities for the discussion.

That gives also the possibility to the Committee of requiring before the session of additional information or updates in form written of the government. This approach makes it possible the governments to better prepare with the discussion with the Committee, which generally takes place between three and four months after the behaviour of the working group.
