COUNCIL DECISION (EU) 2024/1668

of 30 May 2024

on the position to be taken on behalf of the European Union at the 16th meeting of the Committee of the Parties to the Council of Europe Convention on preventing and combating violence against women and domestic violence on the adoption of a recommendation and conclusions addressed to five State Parties on their implementation of that Convention, with regard to matters related to judicial cooperation in criminal matters, asylum and non-refoulement

THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,

Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union, and in particular Article 78(2), Article 82(2) and Article 84, in conjunction with Article 218(9) thereof,

Having regard to the proposal from the European Commission,

Whereas:

 

(1)

The Council of Europe Convention on preventing and combating violence against women and domestic violence (‘the Convention’) was concluded by the Union by Council Decision (EU) 2023/1075 (1) with regard to institutions and public administration of the Union, and by Council Decision (EU) 2023/1076 (2) with regard to matters related to judicial cooperation in criminal matters, asylum and non-refoulement, insofar as they fall within the exclusive competence of the Union, and entered into force for the Union on 1 October 2023.

 

(2)

In accordance with Article 66(1) of the Convention, the Group of experts on action against violence against women and domestic violence (‘GREVIO’) has been tasked with monitoring the implementation of the Convention by its Parties. Pursuant to Article 68(11) of the Convention, GREVIO is to adopt its report and conclusions concerning the measures taken by the Party concerned to implement the provisions of the Convention.

 

(3)

The Committee of the Parties to the Convention may adopt recommendations addressed to the Party concerned, in accordance with Article 68(12) of the Convention. The recommendations are based on the GREVIO report and differentiate between those measures which the Committee of the Parties considers the Party should take as soon as possible, with a requirement to report back to it on steps taken in that regard within a 3-year period, and those which, while important, the Committee of the Parties considers could be left at a secondary level of immediacy. At the end of the 3-year period, the Party must report back to the Committee of the Parties on the measures taken, within 10 specific areas of the Convention. On the basis of that information, and any additional information obtained from non-governmental organisations, civil-society and national institutions for the protection of human rights, the Committee of the Parties is to adopt conclusions on the implementation of the recommendations, prepared by the Secretariat of the Committee.

 

(4)

The Committee of the Parties, during its 16th meeting on 31 May 2024, is expected to adopt the following draft recommendation and four draft conclusions, concerning the implementation of the Convention by five State Parties’ (the ‘draft recommendation and conclusions’):

 

Recommendation on the implementation of the Council of Europe Convention on Preventing and Combating Violence against Women and Domestic Violence by Liechtenstein [IC-CP(2024)1-prov];

 

Conclusions on the implementation of recommendations in respect of Andorra adopted by the Committee of the Parties [IC-CP(2024)2-prov];
