A/68/44 (3) The Committee appreciates the open and constructive dialogue with the State party’s high-level multisectoral delegation, as well as the additional information and explanations provided by the delegation to the Committee. B. Positive aspects (4) The Committee welcomes the State party’s ongoing efforts to revise its legislation in order to give effect to the Committee’s recommendations and to enhance the implementation of the Convention, including the adoption of: (a) The Royal Decree of 11 April 2008, providing a comprehensive set of rules for persons staying at a detention centre, including the regulations dealing with conditions for temporary limitation of the rights and freedoms of persons kept at the detention centre, and the Immigration Act of 15 May 2008 on detention centres for foreign nationals, which includes their rights to receive visitors, to have access to health services and to associate with others; (b) The amendments to the Criminal Procedure Act, which entered into force on 1 July 2008, strengthening the rights of victims in criminal proceedings, in particular for victims of sexual abuse; (c) The Act of 2009 relating to Crisis Centres and the strengthening of the legal protection of victims of trafficking through the new Immigration Act of 15 May 2008 and the Immigration Regulations of 15 October 2009, entered into force on 1 January 2010.

C. Principal subjects of concern and recommendations Incorporation of the Convention into domestic law (6) While noting the State party’s explanation with regard to its general principles concerning the transformation of its international obligations into national law and the reasons for incorporating only the most general international instruments in its Human Rights Act, the Committee regrets that the State party has not changed its position with regard to the specific incorporation of the provisions of the Convention into domestic law (art. 2). The State party should further consider incorporating all provisions of the Convention into domestic law in order to allow the Convention to be directly invoked in court. Definition of torture (7) The Committee notes that, despite its previous recommendations, the definition of torture of the Penal Code is not in full compliance with article 1 of the Convention, as it still enumerates only acts based on some specific forms of discrimination instead of referring to any form of discrimination.
