CAT/C/LVA/CO/6 Redress, including compensation and rehabilitation 34. Recalling its previous concluding observations (CAT/C/LVA/CO/3-5, para. 22), the Committee reiterates its concern that there is no explicit provision in domestic legislation that provides for the right of victims of torture and ill-treatment to fair and adequate compensation, including the means for as full rehabilitation as possible, as required by article 14 of the Convention and in light of its general comment No. 3 (2012) on the implementation of article 14. It is also concerned at the absence of information on specific compensation provided under the Law on the State Compensation to Victims, the Criminal Procedure Law and the Law on Social Services and Social Assistance or on any specific rehabilitation services that may have been established during the period under review. Additionally, it is concerned about the low amounts of State compensation allocated to victims (art. 14). 35. The Committee reiterates its recommendation that the State party amend its legislation to include explicit provisions on the right of victims of torture and illtreatment to redress, including fair and adequate compensation and rehabilitation, in accordance with article 14 of the Convention and in light of its general comment No. 3. It should, in practice, provide all victims of torture and ill-treatment with redress, including fair and adequate compensation, and as full rehabilitation as possible, regardless of whether the perpetrators of such acts have been brought to justice. It should allocate the necessary resources for the effective implementation of rehabilitation programmes. In addition, the State party should: (a) Establish specialized rehabilitation services; (b) Compile and provide the Committee with information on redress and compensation measures, including means of rehabilitation, ordered by the courts or other bodies in the State party that have actually been provided to victims of torture or ill-treatment, including the amounts paid; (c) Increase the amounts of State compensation provided to each victim of torture or ill-treatment. Follow-up procedure 36. The Committee requests the State party to provide, by 6 December 2020, information on follow-up to the Committee’s recommendations on ratifying the Optional Protocol to the Convention, increasing the amounts of State compensation provided to each victim of torture or ill-treatment, and strengthening the effectiveness of complaints mechanisms for reporting cases of violence and providing adequate health care to persons in detention (see paragraphs 19 (d), 35 (c) and 15 (d)). In that context, the State party is invited to inform the Committee about its plans for implementing, within the coming reporting period, some or all of the remaining recommendations in the concluding observations. Other issues 37. The Committee encourages the State party to consider making the declarations under articles 21 and 22 of the Convention. 38. The Committee invites the State party to ratify the core United Nations human rights treaties to which it is not yet party. 39. The State party is requested to disseminate widely the report submitted to the Committee and the present concluding observations, in appropriate languages, through official websites, the media and non-governmental organizations and to inform the Committee about its disseminating activities. 40. The Committee requests the State party to submit its next periodic report, which will be its seventh, by 6 December 2023. The Committee will, in due course, transmit to the State party a list of issues prior to reporting. The State party’s replies to that list of issues will constitute its seventh periodic report under article 19 of the Convention. 12
