E/CN.4/2005/85/Add.2 page 17 69. The Special Rapporteur supports the views of Afghans with whom she met and requests the Government to extend the duration of residence permits from six months to one or two years, as was done in the past. The Special Rapporteur would also support the call she heard from migrants with whom she met to request the Iranian authorities to maintain free access to education, social and health services to all migrants. 70. The Special Rapporteur notes with concern the situation of irregular migrants in Iran in the cities, who suffer stigmatization and discrimination. In that regard, she deems it important that the State should guarantee migrants who have no papers access to basic educational and health services without discrimination. 71. The Government of Iran should provide adequate resources, adopt policies and implement programmes to ensure the application of international human rights standards concerning the apprehension of irregular migrants, deportation, family reunion and conditions of detention; training of officials responsible for enforcing legislation on migration to ensure its conformity with international human rights standards could be envisaged. 72. Irregular migrants detained in Iran pending deportation should be given adequate access to courts and lawyers and their cases reviewed by competent authorities without undue delay, and steps taken to ensure that victims of trafficking are not criminalized. 73. Since the vulnerability of migrants is primarily due to their irregular situation, the Special Rapporteur considers it important for the authorities to continue to provide migration regularization programmes, with the support of civil society and Afghan associations, and ensuring that they are accompanied by extensive information campaigns. 74. The Special Rapporteur considers that the strengthening of control systems should not disproportionately affect previously existing measures, in particular those relating to family reunification and integration of migrants who have been in Iran for several years. The Special Rapporteur is of the view that it is necessary to pay particular attention to Iranian women who have married Afghans as well as to their children. Particular attention should also be devoted to those Afghans who were born in Iran and have been living there since birth. The Government should consider providing a legal status to Afghan children born in Iran as well as to Afghans married to Iranian women as well as to their children. Measures to ensure the full and effective implementation of legislation relating to unaccompanied minors in relation to reunification and documentation should also be foreseen and implemented. 75. The Government should pursue its efforts, in cooperation with the Government of Afghanistan, UNHCR and IOM, to better monitor deportations from “deportation centres” and ensure adequate assistance and protection to deportees, to avoid abuses during the deportation proceedings and detention up to the moment of departure for Afghanistan; a UNHCR presence in the “deportation centres” and “detention centres” would effectively safeguard the right to asylum and the voluntary nature of repatriation.
