CRC/C/15/Add.269 page 3 D. Principal subjects of concern and recommendations 1. General measures of implementation Committee’s previous recommendations 8. The Committee notes with satisfaction that several of its concerns expressed and recommendations (CRC/C/15/Add.76) made upon the consideration of the State party’s initial report (CRC/C/28/Add.4) have been addressed through legislative measures and policies. However, some of its concerns and recommendations regarding, inter alia, the State party’s interpretative declarations; the unclear legal framework in the field of children’s rights; non-discrimination, ill-treatment and abuse of children within the family; employment of minors in the private and agricultural sectors; and the status of nomadic and refugee children have not been sufficiently addressed. 9. The Committee urges the State party to make every effort to address the recommendations contained in the concluding observations on the initial report that have not yet been implemented, and to address the list of concerns contained in the present concluding observations on the second periodic report. Interpretative declarations 10. The Committee regrets that no review of the State party’s interpretative declarations made on articles 13, 14, paragraphs 1 and 2, 16 and 17, of the Convention has been undertaken since the consideration of the State party’s initial report. 11. The Committee reiterates its previous recommendation that the State party should review its interpretative declarations with a view to withdrawing them, in accordance with the 1993 Vienna Declaration and Plan of Action of the World Conference on Human Rights. Legislation 12. The Committee notes the various legislative measures undertaken by the State party and referred to in its response (CRC/C/RESP/91) to the list of issues, and welcomes in particular the bill on child protection (Code de protection de l’enfant) which aims, inter alia, to establish a mechanism for protecting children against all forms of violence, ill-treatment, abuse and negligence. It also takes note of the drafting and compilation of legislation on the organization and promotion of social action, which will provide for protection and social integration of vulnerable groups, including children in difficult circumstances. 13. The Committee recommends that the State party continue to strengthen its legislative efforts by undertaking a comprehensive review of its domestic legislation so as to ensure that it conforms fully with the principles and provisions of the Convention. It further recommends that the State party expedite the adoption of the bill on child protection and the other ongoing processes of legal reform.
