CRC/C/15/Add.191 page 4 16. The Committee encourages the State party to appoint, within its structure, either a commissioner specifically responsible for children’s rights, or establish a specific section or division responsible for children’s rights, that would be specifically responsible for addressing complaints made by children in a child-sensitive manner. In this respect, the Committee refers to its General Comment No. 2 on the role of national human rights institutions. Resources for children 17. The Committee notes the priority accorded by the State party to health and education and the information that the budget has been increased for 2000-2001. However, the Committee remains concerned about the low level of resources in general for social services, health and education, which has a negative impact on the quality and accessibility of services, especially affecting families with children living in poverty. The Committee is also concerned that the “Children of Ukraine” programme is not accorded adequate funding. The Committee is further concerned that readjustment programmes may have a disproportionately negative affect on children if not appropriately addressed in the planning and budgeting of social services. 18. In light of articles 2, 3 and 6 of the Convention, the Committee recommends that the State party pay particular attention to the full implementation of article 4 of the Convention by: (a) Further continuing to increase the budget for the implementation of the Convention and prioritizing budgetary allocations to ensure implementation of economic, social and cultural rights of children to the maximum extent of available resources, in particular to socially marginalized groups, taking into account the decentralization of the provision of social services and of public finances; (b) Strengthening its efforts to implement the poverty reduction strategy (2001); (c) Ensuring sufficient resources for the full implementation of State programmes and policies for children, including “Children of Ukraine”; (d) Identifying the amount and proportion of the State budget spent on children through public and private institutions or organizations in order to evaluate the impact of the expenditures and also, in view of the costs, the accessibility, the quality and the effectiveness of the services for children in the different sectors. Data collection 19. The Committee regrets that its previous recommendation to the State party to develop an efficient coordination and monitoring mechanism that could provide a systematic and comprehensive compilation of data and indicators on all areas covered by the Convention and in relation to all groups of children, including children in single-parent families, children of divorced parents, abandoned children and institutionalized children, has not been fully followed up (ibid., para. 10).
