A/HRC/17/33/Add.2 V. Conclusions and recommendations 87. The Special Rapporteur believes that the commitment of Senegal to the human rights of migrant workers, including its efforts to promote awareness regarding the importance of ratifying the International Convention on the Protection of the Rights of All Migrant Workers and Members of Their Families is noteworthy.30 88. He is equally convinced that challenges remain in legislation, policies and practices and that further efforts are needed to strengthen the protection and promotion of the human rights of migrants in Senegal and of Senegalese migrants residing abroad. In this regard, the Special Rapporteur would like to offer the following recommendations. 89. The Government of Senegal and Governments of European Union member States concerned should ensure that multilateral and bilateral agreements, including operations of the European Agency for the Management of Operational Cooperation at the External Borders of the Member States of the European Union (Frontex), incorporate international standards on human rights and refugee rights. 90. The Government of Senegal should strengthen efforts to ensure the harmonization and comprehensive implementation of the Treaty of the Economic Community of West African States protocol relating to the free movement of persons, residence and establishment within the domestic legislation. It should also train border officials and inform the public at large on the provisions of the protocol and the Treaty itself. 91. The Government should consider elaborating a holistic and strategic migration policy. Further, it should either establish an independent entity responsible for the management and follow-up of all questions related to labour migration, or revive the National Commission of Management and Follow-up of Employment Offers. The new entity or the revived National Commission should be equipped with adequate human and financial resources. Strategies, policies and mechanisms in the field of migration should be devised and implemented with the full involvement of all stakeholders, including civil society, returning migrants and young people. 92. The Government, in cooperation with the relevant international organizations and United Nations agencies, should improve data collection and statistical analysis in relation to aspects of immigration and out-migration. 93. In addition to the social security agreement with France and steps already taken to negotiate a similar agreement with Spain, the Government should systematically negotiate the inclusion of social security provisions in bilateral and multilateral agreements on labour migration in order to, inter alia, facilitate the transfer (upon migrants’ return to Senegal) of the social contributions paid by Senegalese living abroad in the countries of migration. It should also devise a mechanism to extend the coverage of social security to the families of Senegalese working abroad. 94. Pursuant to the recommendation of the Committee on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights on reducing the unemployment rate, the Government should build the capacity, including business capacity, of young people and potential migrants and conduct regular reviews of the minimum wage levels. 30 20 The commitment and efforts of Senegal in this field have also been praised by certain Governments during its universal periodic review in 2009.
