الشكاوى الفردية

بإمكان اللجنة المعنية بحقوق الإنسان أن تتلقّى الشكاوى الفردية التي يرفعها أيّ شخص أو مجموعة من الأشخاص يدّعون أنهم وقعوا ضحيّة انتهاك للعهد ارتكبته دولة طرف (بحسب ما ينصّ عليه البروتوكول الاختياري الملحق بالعهد الدولي الخاص بالحقوق المدنية والسياسيّة) أو نيابة عنهم، والمعروفة أيضًا بالبلاغات، وأن تنظر فيها.

Sea level rise, due to climate change has had a real and urgent impact on the communities living on the island in the Torres Straits, off the coast of Australia. Rising waters have mean danger to livelihoods, homes and culture. Faced with this, the Indigenous communities raised an alarm. The Torres Islanders, including children, filed a complaint with the UN Human Rights Committee against their Australian government’s failure to adapt to climate change, upgrading seawalls on the islands and reducing greenhouse gas emissions. The Committee ruled in favour of the Islanders.

Follow-up to Views

The Committee has established a follow-up procedure for communications by designating a special rapporteur for follow-up on views for the purpose of ascertaining the measures taken by the States parties to give effect to the Committee's views. The special rapporteur shall make recommendations for further action by the Committee as necessary and shall regularly report to the Committee on follow-up activities.

Interim measures

When a complaint is first submitted, the Committee may sometimes request the State party concerned to take what are called ‘interim measures’ to avoid irreparable damage to the alleged victim while the complaint is being considered. These measures are designed to preserve the respective rights of the parties until the Committee takes a decision on a complaint.

Oral comments

The Committee decided that it would consider, in appropriate cases raising complex issues of fact or domestic law or important questions of interpretation of the Covenant, inviting the parties to provide their comments orally before the Committee.

Guidelines on making oral comments concerning communications
