E/CN.4/2005/85 page 19 70. Governments, intergovernmental organizations, NGOs, alleged victims of human rights violations, victims’ families, and witnesses, are a source of information vital to the Special Rapporteur’s work. The Special Rapporteur also maintains regular contact with various international organizations and NGOs over allegations received, preparations for her visits and arrangements for consultations. The topics discussed may at times be highly sensitive, and the Special Rapporteur adheres strictly to the principles of discretion, transparency and impartiality in her work. 71. One of the Special Rapporteur’s priorities since her appointment has been to promote ratification of the International Convention on the Protection of the Rights of All Migrant Workers and Members of Their Families, which provides a suitable legal framework for the adoption of policies on migration management that respect migrants’ human rights and fundamental freedoms. The Special Rapporteur participates in the work of the Steering Committee for the global campaign on the human rights of migrants and supports national campaigns organized by civil society in various countries to urge Governments to ratify the Convention. 72. The Special Rapporteur believes there needs to be a greater exchange of information about efforts by Governments, international organizations and NGOs to ensure respect for the human rights of migrants during the migration process. She therefore includes in her reports information on government and civil society initiatives and projects which promote the recognition of, and respect for, migrants’ rights. 73. The Special Rapporteur submits an annual report to the Commission on her work during the period under consideration. Some of her reports contain case studies. The Special Rapporteur provides information to the Commission on her contacts with Governments, her meetings and her missions. Reports on visits are contained in addenda to the main report, as are the summaries of the communications transmitted to Governments during the reporting period. Since 2002, she has also been required to submit an annual report to the General Assembly. III. FINAL COMMENTS AND RECOMMENDATIONS 74. The complex phenomenon of international migration obeys a simple principle: migratory flows originate in socio-economic inequality and unequal human rights, and are swelled by the attraction of more developed countries, which offer well-being, opportunities and democratic freedoms. The Special Rapporteur holds that legal migration flows should be managed since they allow the human rights of migrants to be protected effectively. 75. The Special Rapporteur has strenuously promoted the idea that the only way to halt the continuing deterioration in immigrants’ situation, particularly that of illegal immigrants, is to recognize the human rights of this group and apply the principle of non-discrimination. She also believes that the expulsion, deportation or repatriation of illegal migrants should be carried out with respect and dignity.
