UN CCPR General Comment No. 30: Reporting Obligations of States Parties (Art. 40) (adopted on 18 September, 2002)
The UN Human Rights Committee publishes its interpretation of the content of human rights provisions, in the form of General Comments on thematic issues.
Overview
The Comment deals with late and unsubmitted reports from States Parties, and discusses various options for dealing with this problem, including the request that relevant States Parties submit reports by a new deadline and allowing the Committee to discuss the measures taken by a State Party to implement the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights in the absence of such a report. The Committee appoints a Special Rapporteur to address these problems.
