A/64/213 95. States that have not yet done so should incorporate the applicable legal frameworks on human rights, the protection of the child, the protection of migrant workers and their families, the protection of asylum-seekers and refugees, the fight against transnational organized crime and the elimination of contemporary forms of slavery into their national laws and policies, as well as into their bilateral and regional agreements for migration management. 96. States should review their national and regional laws and policies to harmonize them with the international legal framework on the protection of the human rights of migrants, with particular attention to the protection of the rights of the child. Immigration laws and policies should include concrete regulations aimed at protecting the rights of the child in the context of migration and fulfilling their specific needs in migration-related circumstances. 97. States should ensure the protection of the child in all migration-related circumstances, regardless of the immigration status of the child or his or her family, and take into account the best interests of the child as a primary consideration in all migration-related initiatives and actions concerning children at all levels. 98. States are encouraged to consider the impact of migration on children in the elaboration and implementation of national development frameworks, poverty reduction strategies, human rights action plans, and programmes and strategies for human rights education and the advancement of the rights of the child. 99. States are also encouraged to adopt and develop programmes and policies to address significant gaps remaining in social policies and other areas where the protection of the human rights of migrants in general, and the protection of migrant children in particular, has yet to be mainstreamed. 100. In the context of the current economic crisis, States should pay particular attention to preventing human rights abuses against migrants and avoid unreasonable restrictions on labour migration. All stakeholders need to continue to make a serious effort to put an end to violations of migrants’ human rights and to show their determination to resolve the issue. 09-43777 21
