Special Rapporteur on the situation of human rights in the Islamic Republic of Iran
A/HRC/22/56 para 78(a)
Full recommendation:
Extend its full cooperation to the country mandate-holder by engaging in a substantive and
constructive dialogue and facilitating a visit the country.
Assessment
It can be noted that Iranian diplomats have met with the Special Rapporteur in Geneva prior to
his interactive dialogues at the Human Rights Council and the General Assembly. However, the
Islamic Republic of Iran does not recognize the mandate of the Special rapporteur on the
situation of human rights. The Special Rapporteur on the Situation of Human Rights in Iran has
not been invited to visit the country since the creation of the mandate. Additionally, the Islamic
Republic of Iran has not responded to a majority of the Special Rapporteur’s communications
and urgent appeals.
Recommendation Status:
This recommendation has NOT been implemented.
