This issue has been on the Government's agenda since more than a decade, says Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights (OHCHR), human rights adviser Kedar Poudyal.
OHCHR has been working with Government departments, including the Department of Justice and the Department of Community Development, which play a leading role in this regard.
Poudyal told Loop PNG that recently, in 2016 during the Universal Periodic Review of PNG by the Human Rights Council, PNG reiterated its commitment to establish the commission.
