CRC/C/HND/CO/3 page 23 E. Optional Protocols to the Convention on the Rights of the Child 85. The Committee reminds the State party that its initial reports under both the Optional Protocols to the Convention have been due since 2004 and encourages their speedy submission, simultaneously if possible, to facilitate the review process. F. Follow-up and dissemination Follow-up 86. The Committee recommends that the State party take all appropriate measures to ensure full implementation of the present recommendations, inter alia, by transmitting them to the members of the Council of Ministers or the Cabinet or a similar body, the National Congress, and to provincial or State Governments and Parliament, when applicable, for appropriate consideration and further action. Dissemination 87. The Committee further recommends that the third periodic report and written replies submitted by the State party and related recommendations (concluding observations) that it adopted be made widely available, including (but not exclusively) through the Internet, to the public at large, civil society organizations, youth groups, and children in order to generate debate and awareness of the Convention, its implementation and monitoring. G. Next report 88. The Committee invites the State party to submit its fourth and fifth periodic reports in one consolidated report by 3 October 2012. This is an exceptional measure due to the large number of reports received by the Committee every year. This consolidated report should not exceed 120 pages (see CRC/C/148). The Committee expects the State party to report every five years thereafter, as foreseen by the Convention. 89. The Committee also invites the State party to submit an updated core document in accordance with the requirements of the common core document in the “Harmonized guidelines on reporting under the international human rights treaties, including guidelines on a common core document and treaty-specific documents”, approved at the Fifth Inter-Committee meeting of the human rights treaty bodies in June 2006 (HRI/MC/2006/3). -----
