As a consequence of the recommendations and suggestions made last year, the attitudes of the law-enforcement bodies, court executors, state authorities and high-ranking officials to the understanding and ensuring of human rights as well as their legal thinking has been significantly changed; and measures towards developing the management system.67 The Commissioner builds her activity in comply with Paris Principles as mentioned below: promotes compliance of the national laws and experience to international human rights documents by which the State is bound as well as their implementation; ensures acceding to international legal documents, application of those international norms into practice and taking relevant measures by the State; assists to preparation reports to UN agencies, regional institutions concerning measures taken as specified in international treaties by the State being bound upon, gives her opinion to these reports as an independent mechanism, and submits her complementary report to the mentioned international institutions; During 2015, within the above stated directions have been carried out by accompany of NPM preventive monitoring and legal awareness.
