Negotiating Text
submitted by the President of the Human Rights Council

I. UNIVERSAL PERIODIC REVIEW1 A. Basis, principles and objectives of the review 1. The basis, principles and objectives of the Universal Periodic Review (UPR) as set forth in paragraphs 1, 2, 3 and 4 of the annex to Human Rights Council resolution 5/1 shall be reaffirmed. B. Periodicity and order of the review 2. The second cycle of the review shall begin in June 2012.

3. The periodicity of the review for the second and subsequent cycles will be of four years and half. This will imply the consideration of forty-two States per year during three sessions of the working group to be held, preferably, in February, June and October. 4. The order of review established for the first cycle of the review shall be maintained for the second and subsequent cycles. 5. The plenary sessions of the Human Rights Council for the consideration of the outcome of the review will be held together with the UPR working group sessions. C. Process and modalities of the review Focus and documentation 6. The review during the second and subsequent cycles will continue to be based on the three documents identified in paragraph 15 of the annex to Council resolution 5/1. 7. The second and subsequent cycles of the review should focus, inter alia, on:

a) The follow-up and implementation of the outcome of the preceding cycle, including, as appropriate, the technical and financial assistance received. b) The developments of the human rights situation in the State under review since its preceding review. 8. The general guidelines for the UPR reports adopted by Council decision 6/102 shall be adjusted to the focus of the second and subsequent cycles before the Council's 18th session. 9. Other relevant stakeholders are encouraged to include in their contributions to the review information on the follow-up by the State under review of the outcome of its preceding review. 10. The summary of the information provided by other relevant stakeholders should contain, where appropriate, a separate section for the contributions by the National Human Rights
Changes to the universal periodic review contained in this part shall be applied starting from the second cycle of the review.

Institutions of the State under review which are consistent with the Principles relating to the status of national institutions for the promotion and protection of human rights annexed to the General Assembly resolution 48/134 (the Paris Principles). 11. The Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights is encouraged to make available and easily accessible all relevant information and reports from the preceding reviews of the State under review. Modalities 12. The role of the Troikas shall be maintained as set forth in the annex to Council resolution 5/1 as well as the President's Statement 8/PRST/1. 13. One additional hour will be added to the review. Thus, the total of four hours of the review will be divided as follows: a) One hour and twenty minutes for the State under review.

b) Two hours and forty minutes for member and observer States of the Human Rights Council wishing to take the floor during the review. 14. One additional half hour will be added to the consideration of the outcome of the review by the plenary of the Human Rights Council. Thus, the total of one hour and half of the consideration of the UPR outcome by the plenary of the Human Rights Council will be divided as follows: a) b) Thirty minutes for the State under review. One hour for the members and observers of the Human Rights Council

15. The modalities for establishing the list of speakers shall ensure the principles of universality, equal treatment and transparency. Such modalities are defined in Appendix 1. 16. The Universal Periodic Review Voluntary Trust Fund established by Human Rights Council resolution 6/17 should be strengthened and operationalized in order to ensure a significant participation of developing countries, particularly least developing countries and small island states, in their review. D. Outcome of the review 17. The recommendations contained in the outcome of the review should be clustered thematically with the full involvement and consent of the State under review and the States that made the recommendations. 18. The State under review should provide the Human Rights Council with its views on all received recommendations, in accordance with the provisions of the institution-building package annexed to Council resolution 5/1. The State under review is also encouraged to provide such information, as well as its voluntary pledges and commitments, in a written format prior to the Human Rights Council plenary for the adoption of the outcome of its review.

E. Follow-up of the review 19. States have the primary responsibility for the implementation of the outcome of their review. 20. States are encouraged to conduct broad consultations with all relevant stakeholders on the implementation of the outcome of their review. 21. States are encouraged to provide the Human Rights Council, on a voluntary basis, with:

a) An implementation plan for the outcome of their review, within a reasonable timeframe. b) A midterm report on the follow-up of the outcome of their review.

22. The Voluntary Fund for Financial and Technical Assistance established by Human Rights Council resolution 6/17 should be strengthened and operationalized, as soon as possible, in order to provide a source of financial and technical assistance to help countries implement the recommendations emanating from their review, including by designating the Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights as a clearing house for such assistance. 23. States may request the United Nations representation at the national or regional level to assist them in the implementation of the follow-up of their review. II. SPECIAL PROCEDURES A. Selection and appointment of mandate-holders 24. To further strengthen and enhance transparency in the selection and appointment process, paragraphs 42, 43, 48, 50 and 52 of the annex to Council resolution 5/1 shall be replaced by the following: a) The following entities may endorse candidates as special procedures mandateholders: (a) Governments; (b) Regional Groups operating within the United Nations human rights system; (c) international organizations or their offices (e.g. the Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights); (d) non-governmental organizations; (e) other human rights bodies; (f) individual nominations. b) Upcoming vacancies of mandates will be published and widely circulated to ensure the interest of competent candidates meeting the highest possible standards of expertise, experience and integrity. Applications shall include standardized information, personal data (a CV) and a motivation letter no more than 600 words long. On that basis, the Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights shall maintain a public list of candidatures for each vacancy. c) The Consultative Group will consider candidates having applied for the mandate in question. However, under exceptional circumstances and if a particular post justifies it, the Group may consider additional nominations with equal or more suitable qualifications for the

4

post. The Group may interview shortlisted candidates ensuring equal treatment of all candidates. Its recommendations to the President shall be public and substantiated. d) On the basis of the recommendations of the Consultative Group and following broad consultations, in particular through the regional coordinators, the President of the Council will identify an appropriate candidate for each vacancy. The President shall follow the order of priority proposed by the Consultative Group or justify his/her decision, if he/she decides otherwise. The President will present to member States and observers a list of candidates to be proposed at least two weeks prior to the beginning of the session in which the Council will consider the appointments. B. Working methods 25. The Council should enhance substantive interaction with special procedures and make better use of their expertise and participation in the Council's work. 26. The Coordination Committee of Special Procedures shall endeavour to strengthen coordination among special procedures, and between the special procedures and other human rights mechanisms, in particular in respect of country visits, and be responsible for preparing the report of the annual meeting of special rapporteurs/representatives, independent experts and chairs of working groups of the special procedures for presentation at the Council by the Chair of the Committee. 27. The orientation and induction of mandate-holders organized by the Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights shall be strengthened and be provided by necessary resources. 28. The Council should rationalize its requests to special procedures, in particular with regard to reporting, to ensure meaningful discussion on the reports and to accord greater emphasis on follow-up to recommendations of special procedures. 29. Comments of the State concerned shall be annexed to country mission reports.

30. National human rights institutions consistent with the Principles relating to the status of national institutions for the promotion and protection of human rights annexed to the General Assembly resolution 48/134 (the Paris Principles) shall be entitled to intervene after the country concerned during the interactive dialogue following the presentation of a country mission report by a special procedure. 31. Cooperation between States and special procedures is a process involving both parties and should be enhanced. Special procedures shall endeavour to formulate their recommendations in a concrete, comprehensive and action-oriented way to facilitate the implementation and follow-up of such recommendations. 32. Special procedures shall continue to foster a constructive dialogue with States and facilitate, with the consent of States concerned, the provision of technical assistance or advisory services to support the implementation of their recommendations.

5

33. States are urged to cooperate with special procedures in accordance with General Assembly resolution 60/251 and operative paragraph 1 of Council resolution 5/2, including to study carefully the conclusions and recommendations addressed to them by special procedures and inform the relevant mechanisms and the Council expeditiously about their implementation. 34. Information on special procedures, such as mandates, mandate-holders, communications, invitations, country visits carried out, reports presented to the Council and the General Assembly, and cooperation between States and special procedures shall be consolidated by the Office of the High Commissioner on Human Rights and be made available regularly to the Council for its information. 35. The Council may be used as a forum for discussing cooperation and follow-up in an open, constructive, and transparent manner, allowing for the identification and exchanges of good practices and lessons learned as well as encouraging a more cooperative response by the State concerned in case of persistent non-cooperation. 36. In order to enhance the accountability of special procedures while fully respecting their independence, the Council shall make better use of and further develop the procedure established by the President's Statement 8/PRST/2 to provide for effective implementation of the Code of Conduct. 37. The Council strongly rejects any act of intimidation or reprisal against individuals and groups who cooperate or have cooperated with the United Nations, its representatives and mechanisms in the field of human rights and urges States to prevent and ensure adequate protection against such acts and investigate any alleged acts of intimidation and reprisal and inform the Council accordingly. C. Resources and funding 38. The Council recognizes the importance of ensuring adequate and equitable funding and resources to support all special procedures according to their specific needs, including additional tasks entrusted to them by the relevant United Nations organs, with equal priority to be accorded to civil and political rights and economic, social and cultural rights, and further recognizes that this should be achieved through the regular budget of the United Nations. 39. The Council therefore requests the Secretary-General to ensure the availability of adequate resources within the regular budget for the Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights to support the full implementation by special procedures of their mandates. 40. The Council also recognizes the continued need for extra-budgetary funding to support the work of special procedures and welcomes further voluntary contributions by Member States, emphasizing that these contributions should be, to the extent possible, un-earmarked or include a share to be given to a central pool of funds used by the Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights to support the system of special procedures as a whole. 41. The Council highlights the need for full transparency in the funding of special procedures and, in this regard, welcomes regular provision of information by the Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights on the availability and allocation of funding, and on

6

expenditure utilized by special procedures, which should be attached to reports of special procedures. III. ADVISORY COMMITTEE A. Nomination and Election 42. To ensure that the best possible expertise is made available to the Council and that the best candidates are selected: a) In proposing or endorsing candidates for the Advisory Committee, Member States of the United Nations are encouraged to ensure that the number of candidates per region is higher than that of vacant seats. b) The Consultative Group shall compile the names of candidates per region and comment on the fulfilment of the agreed requirements. When after the exhaustion of the deadline mentioned in paragraph 71 of the annex to Council resolution 5/1, there is not enough candidates in one or more regional cluster(s), the Consultative Group shall recommend additional names from the concerned region(s) that would fulfil the requirements in the subparagraph above. c) Based on the nomination from States and comments and recommendations from the Consultative Group, the election of the members of the Advisory Committee shall remain as envisaged by paragraph 70 of the annex to Council resolution 5/1. B. Functions 43. The Council shall strengthen its interaction with the Advisory Committee and engage more systematically with it through work formats such as seminars, panels, working groups and sending feedback to the inputs provided by the Committee. 44. The Council shall endeavour to clarify specific mandates given to the Advisory Committee under relevant resolutions, including to indicate thematic priorities and provide specific guidelines for the Advisory Committee with a view to triggering implementationoriented outputs. The clarification of mandates can be conveyed through the dialogue between the President of the Council together with sponsors of relevant resolutions and the Advisory Committee. 45. In order to provide a proper setting for a better interaction between the Council and its Committee, the first annual session of the Committee shall henceforth be convened immediately prior to the March session of the Human Rights Council while the second session shall be held in August. 46. The annual report of the Committee to the Council shall be submitted to the Council's September session and be the subject of an interactive dialogue with the Committee's Chairperson. This would not exclude other interaction with the Committee should such opportunities arise and be deemed appropriate by the Council. C. Methods of work
7

47. The Human Rights Council shall reconsider the arrangement of the Social Forum specified in Council resolution 6/13 in light of existing and effective Council mechanisms, such as panel discussions, which offer greater stakeholder engagement and provide better opportunities to address those themes which may be covered by the Social Forum. IV. COMPLAINT PROCEDURE A. Admissibility criteria for communication 48. The existence of a country-specific mandate or the examination of the human rights situation in a country by the Council will not preclude in itself the consideration of a communication that fulfils the admissibility criteria listed in paragraph 87 of the annex to Council resolution 5/1. B. Working modalities and confidentiality 49. The Working Group on Situations is requested to provide information to the Council on the work undertaken in each of its meeting. C. Involvement of the complainant and of the State concerned 50. The Complaint Procedure is requested to ensure that the author of a communication and the State concerned are informed of the proceedings and the decisions taken at the key stages of the procedure. V. AGENDA AND FRAMEWORK FOR THE PROGRAM OF WORK A. Agenda and framework for the programme of work 51. The Council shall continue to have agenda and framework for programme of work as specified in the annex to Council resolution 5/1. B. Programme of work 52. The provisions of Rule 8 in the section on Rules of Procedure in the annex to Council resolution 5/1 shall be read in conjunction with the following: a) The Council shall have its programme of work for its two regular sessions of four weeks each as per the format specified in Appendix 2. b) The Council's programme of work for its remaining regular session(s) shall be devoted to the adoption of the reports of the UPR working group. 53. The Council's cycle will be aligned with the calendar year and subject to necessary transitional arrangements to be decided by the General Assembly.

8

VI. Methods of Work and Rules of Procedure A. Yearly panel with United Nations agencies and funds 54. The Council shall hold a half day panel once a year to interact with Heads of Governing Bodies and of Secretariats of United Nations agencies and funds on specific human rights themes with the objective of promoting mainstreaming of human rights system-wide. 55. In consultation with the Bureau, the President of the Council will identify the proposed theme of the panel for the upcoming year. The President will then submit this theme for approval by the Council at its relevant organizational session. 56. The Office of High Commissioner for Human Rights, in its capacity of secretariat of the Council, shall prepare the required documentation for the panel. B. Special sittings 57. The programme of work may be adjusted in case an urgent human rights situation emerges in the course of a regular session. 58. The adjustment of the programme of work to address a human rights situation could take place on the basis of extensive consultations conducted by the President of the Council or at the request of a member of the Council with the support of one third of the membership of the Council. C. Other work formats and outcomes 59. In the event of an urgent situation, the Council may resort to other work formats as stipulated in the annex to Council resolution 5/1, based on the following principles and procedure:
a)

Principles i. Intergovernmental process ii. Objective, non-selective, impartial, constructive and cooperative dialogue in a timely manner iii. Broad consultation and consent of State concerned iv. Procedural role of President of the Council

b) Procedure

Upon request of one or more State(s), the President of the Council shall facilitate broad consultation with member States of the Council together with the State concerned to arrive at the appropriate work format, including its modalities and outcome, if any, within 72 hours after receipt of the request. 60. The work formats of the Council do not necessarily require a formal or predetermined outcome.
9

61. Outcomes other than resolutions and decisions may include recommendations, conclusions, summaries of discussions and President's Statements. 62. President's Statements are to be made only after extensive consultations with States and be adopted on the basis of consensus. D. Voluntary yearly calendar of resolutions 63. The Bureau shall establish a tentative yearly calendar for thematic resolutions in the Human Rights Council. The yearly calendar will be established on a voluntary basis and without prejudice to the right of States as provided for by paragraph 117 of the annex to Council resolution 5/1. 64. The calendar should also contemplate the appropriate synchronization of schedules for resolutions, mandates and presentation of reports by special procedures. 65. The Bureau shall present a report to the Council in its September 2011 session.

E. Triennial thematic resolutions 66. In principle and on a voluntary basis, thematic resolutions should be tabled on a triennial basis. 67. Thematic resolutions on the same issue to be presented in between years are expected to be shorter and focused at addressing the specific question or standard gap that justified its presentation. F. Transparency and extensive consultations for resolutions and decisions 68. The consultation process on, inter alia, resolutions and decisions of the Council, shall observe the principles of transparency and inclusiveness. G. Documentation 69. There is a need for ensuring availability of working documents in time and in all United Nations languages. The use of modern technologies, such as the electronic circulation of copies, is encouraged in order to improve the Council's efficiency and to reduce the circulation of paper. 70. With a view to reduce the paper load in the Council, reports could be presented orally to the Council; in this case, their written transcriptions should be circulated as United Nations official documents. All rules pertaining to the early distribution of reports would equally apply to oral reports. H. Deadlines for the notification and submission of draft initiatives, as well as programme budget implication (PBI) information 71. There is a need for early submission of draft resolutions and decisions by the end of the penultimate week of a session.

10

72. Sponsors of initiatives are encouraged to be in contact with the Office of High Commissioner for Human Rights as soon as possible, with a view to facilitate the circulation of information on budgetary implications. I. Duplication with the Third Committee 73. The duplication of initiatives in the Human Rights Council and in the General Assembly/Third Committee should be avoided. J. Establishment of an Office of the President 74. The Office of the President of the Human Rights Council shall be established, with adequate staffing resources and necessary equipment, in order to increase efficiency, continuity and institutional memory and to allow the President to fulfil his/her tasks. 75. The Office of the President will be accountable to the President. The staff of the Office of the President should have at their disposal an appropriate office space as well as the technical and organisational tools and instruments required for the fulfilment of their tasks. K. Human Rights Council secretariat services 76. A task-force shall be established by the President of the Council, in consultations with all relevant stakeholders, to envisage how to best support the Human Rights Council and its mechanisms, including to deal with IT support aiming at a paperless Council. 77. The task-force will submit its conclusions to the Council in March 2012.

L. Accessibility for persons with disabilities (task-force) 78. A task-force shall be established by the President of the Council, in consultations with relevant stakeholders, including governmental representatives, members of the Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights and the United Nations Office at Geneva and representatives of persons with disabilities, to assess the existing conditions and potential measures to be taken in order to enhance accessibility to the Council. 79. The task-force will submit its conclusions to the Council in March 2012.

M. Participation of stakeholders 80. The use of IT solutions, such as videoconferencing or video messaging, is encouraged in order to enhance access and participation by non-resident state delegations, specialized agencies, other intergovernmental organizations and national human rights institutions consistent with the Principles relating to the status of national institutions for the promotion and protection of human rights annexed to the General Assembly resolution 48/134 (the Paris Principles), as well as non-governmental organizations in consultative status, in accordance with the Human Rights Council's rules of procedure.

11

APPENDIX 1 Modalities for Establishing the List of Speakers for the Working Group of the Universal Periodic Review The established procedures, which allow 3 minutes speaking time for Member States and 2 minutes for Observer States, will continue to apply when all speakers can be accommodated within the two hours and forty minutes hours available to Member and Observer States (160 minutes). Should it be impossible to accommodate all speakers within 160 minutes based on 3 minutes speaking time for Member States and 2 minutes for Observer States, the speaking time will be reduced to 2 minutes for all. If all speakers still cannot be accommodated, the speaking time will be divided among all delegations inscribed so as to enable each and every speaker to take the floor. Steps for drawing up the list of speakers 1. The list of speakers will open at 10:00 on the Monday of the week preceding the beginning of the UPR working group session and remain open for a period of four days. It will close on the Thursday at 18:00. A registration desk will be set up at the Palais des Nations. The exact location will be communicated to all permanent missions by the Secretariat. In all cases, regardless of speaking times, the delegations inscribed on the list of speakers will be arranged by alphabetical order of the county names in English. On the Friday morning preceding the beginning of the session, the President, in the presence of the Bureau, will draw by lot the first speaker on the list. The list of speakers will continue from the State drawn onward. On Friday afternoon, all delegations will be informed of the speaking order and of the speaking time available to delegations. Speaking time limits during the review will be strictly enforced. Speakers who exceed speaking time will have their microphones cut off. Speakers may therefore wish to deliver the essential part at the beginning of their statements. All speakers will retain the possibility of swapping place on the speakers list under bilateral arrangement between speakers.
