Our Commissioner, Professor Alan Miller, recently gave a presentation to the UN in his role as Secretary of the International Coordinating Committee of National Human Rights Institutions (NHRIs) on "Why the United Nations New York based processes need NHRIs – with reference to the Sustainable Development Goals”.
The Commission has responded to the consultation on the 10 year strategy for policing in Scotland. We welcome the commitment to the values of fairness, integrity and respect as well as to a rights based approach to policing in the proposed strategy. However, we recommend that human rights should be explicitly cited whilst mainstreamed across the whole strategy.
The Commission has submitted its views to the Scottish Parliament's Finance and Constitution Committee's Inquiry on the Impact of COVID-19 on public finances and the Fiscal Framework. The submission highlights the importance of human rights based budgeting to guide economic recovery and financial decision-making.
