CRC/C/15/Add.69 page 5 child pornography. It is especially concerned by the fact that a significant number of girls, and sometimes boys, are victims of transnational trafficking for the purpose of sexual exploitation in brothels across the border. 25. In light of article 39 of the Convention, the Committee is worried about the insufficient measures taken to provide physical and psychological recovery and social reintegration to children victims of any form of neglect, abuse and/or exploitation, particularly victims of armed conflicts, sexual exploitation and child labour. 26. The situation in relation to the administration of juvenile justice, and in particular its lack of compatibility with articles 37, 39 and 40 of the Convention, as well as other relevant standards such as the Beijing Rules, the Riyadh Guidelines and the United Nations Rules for the Protection of Juveniles Deprived of their Liberty, is a matter of serious concern to the Committee. Severe conditions of detention, the fact that deprivation of liberty is not used only as a measure of last resort, the lack of access by the child to legal assistance and judicial review, and the absence of a monitoring system are situations that remain of particular concern to the Committee. 27. The Committee is worried by the failure of the State party to cooperate with non-governmental and intergovernmental organizations in the framework of existing international human rights mechanisms. The Committee is concerned about the impact of this situation on the daily life of every child living under the jurisdiction of the State party. E. Suggestions and recommendations 28. The Committee recommends that the State party undertake a comprehensive review of the national legislation to bring it into conformity with the principles and provisions of the Convention, especially in the areas of non-discrimination, citizenship, freedom of association, corporal punishment, child labour, adoption and the administration of juvenile justice. The Committee also recommends that the Citizenship Act, the Village and Towns Acts and the Whipping Acts be repealed. Laws relating to the right to non-discrimination, freedom of association, child labour and juvenile justice should be amended so to be fully compatible with the provisions and principles of the Convention. The Committee recommends that the State party take all necessary measures to fully reflect the rights recognized by the Convention in a fundamental body of law. 29. The Committee recommends that the State party reinforce at all levels the role of the National Committee for the Rights of the Child in the implementation of the Convention. The State party should take all necessary measures to fully integrate the Convention and the National Plan of Action in all programmes and sectoral policies. 30. The Committee also recommends that the State party gather all necessary data on the situation of children in the various areas covered by the Convention, including on children belonging to the most vulnerable groups.
