The State party should adopt and implement emergency legislative and administrative measures to protect children, especially abandoned children, from sexual violence and to facilitate their rehabilitation and reintegration. The Committee further recommends that the State party take all possible steps to demobilize child soldiers and facilitate their rehabilitation and reintegration into society. (15) The Committee notes with concern the lack of statistics, especially on cases of torture, complaints and convictions of perpetrators. The State party should provide in its next periodic report detailed statistical data, disaggregated by crime, ethnicity and gender, on complaints relating to torture and ill-treatment allegedly committed by law enforcement officials, and on the related investigations, prosecutions and criminal and disciplinary sanctions. Information is further requested on any measures taken to compensate and provide rehabilitation services for the victims. (16) The State party is encouraged to disseminate widely the reports submitted by the Democratic Republic of the Congo to the Committee and the latter’s conclusions and recommendations, in appropriate languages, through official websites, the media and non-governmental organizations. (17) The Committee requests the State party to provide, within one year, information on measures taken in response to the Committee’s recommendations contained in paragraph 5 (a), (b) and (c) above. (18) The State party is invited to submit its next periodic report, which will be considered as its consolidated second to fourth reports, by 16 April 2009, the due date of its fourth report. 27. Ecuador (1) The Committee considered the third periodic report of Ecuador (CAT/C/39/Add.6) at its 673rd and 675th meetings, held on 11 and 14 November 2005 (CAT/C/SR.673 and 675), and adopted the following conclusions and recommendations. A. Introduction (2) The Committee welcomes the third periodic report of Ecuador, although it notes that the report was due in April 1997 and was submitted six years late. The Committee appreciates the constructive dialogue it had with a representative high-level delegation and expresses its appreciation for the frank and direct written replies to its questions. (3) Although the Committee recognizes that the State party made an effort to comply with the Committee’s guidelines on the presentation of reports, it points out that the report is lacking in information on the practicalities of implementing the Convention and hopes that in future the State party will comply fully with its obligations under article 19 of the Convention. B. Positive aspects (4) The Committee takes note with satisfaction of the adoption in 1998 of the new Constitution, which generally reinforces the protection of human rights. It particularly welcomes the adoption in 2003 of the Children’s and Youth Code and in 2005 of the Criminal Code Reform Act, which defines the sexual exploitation of minors as an offence. The definitive introduction of children’s judges in the judiciary is also welcome. (5) The Committee welcomes the submission to the legislature of various bills, such as the preliminary draft of a bill on the administration of indigenous justice and bills on the enforcement of sentences, the system of public defenders and crimes against humanity. 20
