that the investigations into complaints of
human rights abuses are completed within
the timeframe set forth in the regulation,
making this action one of its key
performance indicators. The NHRCT has also
resorted more to coordinating with
relevant authorities to provide human
rights protection. This approach has assisted
in resolving a complainant’s problem
in a relatively short period of time, such as
the case of delayed prosecution, which can
be solved within one month.
Additionally, the NHRCT has followed up
on the implementation of recommendations
made in 53 NHRCT investigation reports on
measures or guidelines for the prevention
or rectification of human rights violations or
for the promotion and protection of human
rights. It is found that the recommendations
in 49 reports, or 92.45 percent, had been
implemented by government departments
or private entities in whole or in part, leading
to the effective solution of the problem. This
included the recommendations on community
rights made to government agencies in
response to petitions to suspend, review,
or implement a project in accordance with
the United Nations Guiding Principles
on Business and Human Rights and on
the performance of duty of state officers in
accordance with human rights principles.

2. Preparation of the country’s human rights
situation report.
It is a responsibility and power
prescribed in the Constitution and the
statute establishing the National Human
Rights Commission. The NHRCT prepared
the 2020 human rights situation report and
sent it to the National Assembly and Cabinet
on 26 March 2021, within 90 days as required
by law. The report gives an evaluation of
the state of human rights in four major
sections: 1) human rights situation in specific
circumstances; 2) the situation of civil and
political rights; 3) the situation of economic,
social, and cultural rights; and 4) human rights
situation of specific groups, including children,
the elderly, persons with disabilities, women,
and gender equality, and persons with status
and rights problems.
According to Section 41 of the Law
on the National Human Rights Commission,
the NHRCT has made a work plan for its 2021
report and has been monitoring the country’s
human rights situation from various sources
since the beginning of 2021 in order to analyze
and prepare a report on Thailand’s human
rights situation for next year.
3. Recommendations on measures or
guidelines for the promotion and
preservation of human rights.
In FY 2021, the NHRCT issued 8 reports

guidelines for the promotion and protection
