CAT/C/PRY/CO/4-6 Sexual Exploitation of Children and Adolescents and ensure it is allocated the necessary human and financial resources. The Committee further recommends that the State party increase its efforts to establish systems and mechanisms of international, regional and bilateral cooperation with countries of origin, transit and destination in order to prevent, investigate and punish cases of human trafficking. Training and the implementation of the Istanbul Protocol 24. The Committee takes note of the information in the report of the State party on training schemes for the Armed Forces, prosecutors and members of the national police but regrets that so little information is available on the evaluation of those schemes and their effectiveness in reducing the incidence of torture and ill-treatment. In particular, the Committee regrets the lack of information on the training provided on the Manual on Effective Investigation and Documentation of Torture and Other Cruel, Inhuman or Degrading Treatment or Punishment (the Istanbul Protocol) to personnel involved in the investigation and identification of torture and ill-treatment (art. 10). The State party should: (a) Continue to provide training programmes so as to ensure that all public servants, in particular police and other law enforcement officers, are fully aware of the provisions of the Convention; (b) Assess the effectiveness and impact of training schemes and education on the incidence of torture and ill-treatment; (c) Establish a training plan for all personnel involved in the investigation and identification of torture, including public defenders, doctors and psychologists, so that the contents of the Istanbul Protocol are known and applied in practice. Redress, including compensation and rehabilitation 25. The Committee takes note of the information provided in the report of the State party on the financial compensation awarded to victims of human rights violations, including torture, committed during the period 1954–1989. The Committee regrets not having received information on the implementation of rehabilitation measures, such as psychological assistance or training, for such victims. The Committee also regrets the total lack of information on measures to compensate victims of acts of torture committed after the dictatorship (art. 14). The State party should ensure that the appropriate steps are taken to provide the victims of torture and ill-treatment with redress, including fair and adequate compensation, and the fullest possible rehabilitation. In its next periodic report, the State party is asked to provide the Committee with statistics and full details of cases in which victims have obtained full redress, including investigation and punishment of the perpetrators, compensation and rehabilitation. Violence against children 26. The Committee takes note of the measures taken to prohibit corporal punishment of children living with their mothers in places of detention or in shelters. The Committee also takes note of the information provided by the State party delegation on the existence of a bill to prohibit corporal punishment. However, the Committee is concerned that corporal punishment in the home is still not prohibited (art. 16). The Committee recommends that the State party explicitly prohibit corporal punishment of children in all settings, including in the home. 10 GE.11-47781
