E/C.12/DJI/CO/1-2 in compliance with international law. In this regard, the Committee refers the State party to its general comment No. 7 (1997) on forced evictions. The Committee recommends that the State party build more public housing and facilitate access to adequate housing in rural areas, including by promoting the use of safe and durable construction materials. In addition, the Committee urges the State party to assess the impact of the use of environmentally friendly materials on indoor air pollution in homes. The Committee refers the State party to its general comment No. 4 (1991) on the right to adequate housing. 27. The Committee is concerned by the fact that, due to price increases, a growing number of households in the State party are unable to afford the foodstuffs needed for an adequate diet. The Committee also notes with concern that, despite the progress achieved by the State party, food insecurity and malnutrition still affect the majority of the population (art. 11). The Committee recommends that the State party: (a) Invest in a system to monitor and evaluate the enjoyment of the right to adequate food; (b) Take the structural and regulatory measures needed for the effective implementation of Act No. 28/AN/08/6 L on protection, the suppression of fraud and consumer protection in order to ensure the right of all persons to accessible food; (c) Adopt a multisectoral approach in the effort to combat food insecurity and malnutrition, based on strengthening household resilience and coping mechanisms and taking into account geographical, socioeconomic and cultural contexts; (d) Ensure that the initiatives planned by the State party to reduce food insecurity, such as leasing farmland in neighbouring countries, do not impede the enjoyment of economic, social and cultural rights by local communities in those areas; and (e) Encourage the development of local solution, such as agriculture and livestock farming in rural areas. 28. The Committee notes with concern the lack of adequate drinking water in the State party, which affects certain communities more acutely, despite water supply efforts (arts. 11 and 12). The Committee recommends that the State party recognize the right to water in its legislation, adopt a general water plan based on this right and regularly follow up its implementation to ensure that the right is exercised without discrimination and to ensure that water is available, accessible and of acceptable quality. The Committee also calls on the State party to speed up the implementation of projects to develop infrastructure for the collection of surface water and rainwater and the desalination of sea water. In addition, the Committee recommends that the State party involve the population groups and communities concerned in the process of identifying their water needs and solutions to those needs, such as drilling new boreholes and restoring public supply points, so as to ensure that these solutions are acceptable and longlasting. The Committee draws the State party’s attention to its general comment No. 15 (2002) on the right to water. 29. The Committee is concerned about reports of intensive fishing in the State party’s territorial waters (art. 11). GE.13-49993 7
