INFORMATION ON FOLLOW-UP PROCEDURE – CEDAW

The Committee on Discrimination against  Women (CEDAW Committee) applies a follow-up procedure whereby it requests the State party to provide information within a period of one or two years on steps taken to implement specific recommendations. Such recommendations are selected because it is considered that their lack of implementation constitutes a major obstacle for the implementation of the Convention and implementation is seen as feasible within the suggested time frame. The Committee has a Rapporteur on follow-up and a Deputy Rapporteur who review and assess the follow-up information.
