Follow-up procedure
66.
The Committee requests the State party to provide, by 17 May 2020,
information on follow-up to the Committee’s recommendations on the sexual abuse of
children in detention (para. 19), accountability for any torture and ill-treatment
committed by United Kingdom personnel in Iraq from 2003 to 2009 (para. 33) and
accountability for conflict-related violations in Northern Ireland (para. 41 (a) and (d)–
(f)). In that context, the State party is invited to inform the Committee about its plans
for implementing, within the coming reporting period, some or all of the remaining
recommendations in the concluding observations.
Other issues
67.
The Committee encourages the State party to consider making the declaration
under article 22 of the Convention recognizing the competence of the Committee to
receive and consider communications from individuals subject to its jurisdiction.
68.
The State party is requested to disseminate widely the report submitted to the
Committee and the present concluding observations, in appropriate languages,
through official websites, the media and non-governmental organizations, and to
inform the Committee about such dissemination.
69.
The Committee requests the State party to submit its next periodic report,
which will be its seventh, by 17 May 2023. For that purpose, and in view of the fact
that the State party has agreed to report to the Committee under the simplified
reporting procedure, the Committee will, in due course, transmit to the State party a
list of issues prior to reporting. The State party’s replies to that list of issues will
constitute its seventh periodic report under article 19 of the Convention.
