"Parliament has long been calling for the appointment of a Special Representative for Human Rights. This ambition is not amenable to any compromise. Indeed, this special representative will not only be a representative of the 27 but also a representative of the Union as a whole. Consequently, Parliament intends to play its role in the appointment procedure and in the oversight of his or her entire mandate. The representative must be given a strong, independent and flexible mandate not defined by narrow and specific thematic responsibilities, but which allows him or her to act swiftly and effectively. All the following human rights issues must be covered: abolition of the death penalty, human rights defenders, the fight against impunity, the fight against torture, freedom of expression (including on the Internet), of association, of assembly, of religion and belief, minority rights, child protection, women’s rights, peace and security, gender issues, and so on. Finally, adequate financial and human resources should be provided to the special representative in order to ensure the effectiveness of his or her work and that of his or her team."@en1
