Dossiers once generated 1. Relationship between the dossiers and the report For methodological and transparency purposes, investigative bodies should refer in their report to the manner in which they approached individual identification. Where individuals are identified, either confidentially or, in exceptional cases, in the public version, the report should clearly indicate the standard of proof and how it was employed. Where confidential dossiers are created, the report should state where they will be kept and recommend under what circumstances they may be opened or used. The report may also indicate where the remaining materials, both physical and electronic, will be kept.171 If a dossier is later shared, a record must be kept of the request, the response, and details of all information shared. As noted (see supra, notes 118 and 121), the materials are handed over to the High Commissioner for safekeeping until the point at which United Nations archiving rules apply. Recommendations in the public report complement, but do not replace, a handover note to the High Commissioner which may include more technical (or protection-sensitive) details that should not feature in the public report. 171 102 ATTRIBUTING INDIVIDUAL RESPONSIBILITY
