CAT/C/55/3 Analysis of information on the status of implementation of the recommendations identified for follow-up 17. The Rapporteur for follow-up assesses whether all the issues identified by the Committee for follow-up have been addressed by the State party and whether the information provided responds to the Committee’s concerns and recommendations. Information received from national human rights institutions, non-governmental organizations or other stakeholders will also be taken into consideration by the Rapporteur, along with other information that has come to his or her attention as an independent expert. According to rule 72, paragraphs 1 and 2, of the rules of procedure, the Rapporteur shall assess the information provided by the State party in consultation with the country rapporteurs. 18. The assessment carried out by the Rapporteur includes an assessment of the quality and extent of the information provided, as well as an assessment of the degree to which the recommendations identified for follow-up have been implemented. The assessment categories below are used by the Rapporteur in drafting replies to States parties on behalf of the Committee. 19. The information provided will be assessed, by follow-up recommendation, using the following classification: (a) The information is thorough and extensive, and relates directly to the recommendations (satisfactory - 3); (b) The information is thorough and extensive, but fails to respond fully to the recommendations (partly satisfactory - 2); (c) The information is vague and incomplete and/or fails to address the recommendations (unsatisfactory - 1); (d) The State party has not addressed the concern or recommendations in the response (no response - 0). 20. Implementation will be assessed, by follow-up recommendation, using the following categories: (a) The recommendation has largely been implemented (the State party has provided evidence that sufficient action has been taken towards the full or almost full implementation of the recommendation - A); (b) The recommendation has been partially implemented (the State party has taken substantive steps towards the implementation of the recommendation but further action is needed - B1); (c) The recommendation has been partially implemented (the State party has taken initial steps towards implementation but further action is needed - B2); (d) The recommendation has not been implemented (the State party has taken no action to implement the recommendation or the action taken has not addressed the situation - C); (e) The information provided is insufficient to assess implementation (the State party has not provided enough information on the measures taken to implement the recommendation - D); (f) The recommendation has been counteracted (the State party adopted measures that are contrary or have results contrary to the recommendations of the Committee - E). 4
