Dissemination
77.
The Committee further recommends that the third periodic report, the written
replies submitted by the State party and the related recommendations (concluding
observations) adopted by the Committee be made widely available, including (but not
exclusively) through the Internet, to the public at large, especially to civil society
organizations, youth groups and children, in order to generate debate and awareness of the
Convention, its implementation and monitoring.
11. Next report
78.
The Committee invites the State party to submit a consolidated fourth and fifth report
by 20 April 2011 (that is, 18 months before the due date of the fifth report). This is an
exceptional measure due to the large number of reports received by the Committee every year
and the consequent delay between the date of submission of a State party’s report and its
consideration by the Committee. This report should not exceed 120 pages (see CRC/C/118).
The Committee expects the State party to report every five years thereafter, as foreseen by the
Convention.
