134 Rome 1993 3. The political consultation process and CSCE missions • In order to further political consideration and action under the human dimension, the decision-making bodies of the CSCE will consider human dimension issues on a regular basis as an integral part of deliberations relating to European security. Resources and information will be made available by the ODIHR in support of such consideration. • Further emphasis will be given to human dimension issues in mandates of CSCE missions as well as in the follow-up of mission reports. To this end the ODIHR will be given an enhanced role in the preparation of CSCE missions, inter alia, in providing information and advice to missions in accordance with its expertise. • In the context of conflict prevention and crisis management, the issue of mass migration, namely displaced persons and refugees, will be addressed, as appropriate, by the CSO and the Permanent Committee of the CSCE, taking into account the role of other relevant international bodies. 4. Office for Democratic Institutions and Human Rights The Ministers decided to strengthen the ODIHR’s functions and operations. Inter alia, the ODIHR will enhance its activities under its mandate in the following areas: • the building of an expanded database of experts in fields relevant to the human dimension. Participating States and non-governmental organizations are requested to inform the ODIHR of experts available in fields relevant to the human dimension; • enhancement of its role in comprehensive election monitoring; • strengthened co-operation with relevant international organizations in order to coordinate activities and identify possible areas of joint endeavour; • receiving information provided by NGOs having relevant experience in the human dimension field; • serving as a point of contact for information provided by participating States in accordance with CSCE commitments; • disseminating general information on the human dimension, and international humanitarian law. The Ministers determined that in order to fulfil its new tasks, the ODIHR should be granted additional resources. They requested the CSO to consider the financial and administrative implications of strengthening the ODIHR as outlined above. 5. Streamlining the Moscow Mechanism Recognizing the Moscow Mechanism as a significant inter-governmental instrument for follow-up within the human dimension, the Ministers agreed to develop its effectiveness and promote its use, by expanding the resource list and shortening time-frames under the mechanism. Also the Permanent Committee of the CSCE will be empowered to trigger the mechanism as well as to take follow-up action based on rapporteur’s reports. To this end it was decided to modify the mechanism in accordance with annex A. 6. Building on the work of the Implementation Meeting on Human Dimension Issues and the Human Dimension Seminars
