National detention standards

Resolution number
11
Whereas
  1. National Detention Standards remain at a draft stage but function as de facto guidelines;
  2. It is acknowledged that there are no management oversight boards for detention facilities within the CIC structure and no satisfactory complaint mechanisms;
Therefore be it resolved

That the CCR urge CIC to:

  1. Amend and adopt the draft National Detention Standards in line with NGO proposed amendments;
  2. Establish management oversight boards for CIC detention facilities and an effective complaint mechanism for detainees and NGOs;
  3. Adopt national detention standards for persons detained in non-CIC facilities.
