answer text <p>We read the 2013 World Report from Human Rights Watch and the 2013 United Nations Secretary-General's annual report with interest. We regularly discuss with Morocco the importance of full respect for human rights in Western Sahara, including in discussions at the UN Security Council, and during my visit to Rabat in March. However, we also welcome the facilitation by the government of Morocco of access to the Territory for United Nations special procedures mandate holders. I recently made a statement warmly welcoming the government of Morocco's announcement that the process to ratify the OPCAT will be completed imminently. I also welcomed Morocco's new commitments to investigate complaints of human rights violations made to the National Council of Human Rights within a fixed 3 month deadline, and the definitive ending of Military Tribunal trials for civilians.</p> more like this
