Govt eyeing Human Rights Commission establishment

Deputy secretary of the Department of Justice and Attorney General, Roselyn Gwaibo, says this has been talked about since 1991 and the current government is committed to making sure it is established in this term of government.

She made this comment when speaking at the inaugural judges workshop on human rights that is being run by the Pacific Judicial Strengthening Initiative.

Gwaibo explained the purpose of the commission, saying once it is established, it will mediate and consolidate human rights violations.
