"Integration of the Human Rights of Women and the Gender Perspective" E/CN.4/2006/62, 20 February 2006, 62nd Session of the Commission on Human Rights
LSI welcomes the UN Special Rapporteur’s initiative for a report on the demand side of trafficking, which has become an important theme in the international trafficking discussion and therefore an issue for international research and debate. LSI also fully supports the statement of the Special Rapporteur that “the human rights of victims of trafficking should be at the centre of all efforts to combat trafficking and protect, assist and provide redress to victims of trafficking”(4) However, LSI would like to share a number of concerns about the Report which we believe undermines the validity of the conclusions and recommendations.
