and indicators for assessing the impact on children's rights, 21 and the MOHW stated that it is asking members of the Child and Youth Rights Group, Executive Yuan, to review them. However, no relevant records are available yet. (4)The Civil Code was amended to set the age of majority at 18 years old and it is scheduled to take effect on January 1, 2023 (§43 of the Second Report), with supporting measures remaining to be implemented by the Government. 27. The issue of corporal punishment within the family is mentioned in §127 of the Second Report and §§ 56-57 of the Concluding Observations on the Initial Report. Articles 1084 and 1085 of the current Civil Code still maintain parents’ rights and obligation to protect and educate their minor children and to discipline them to the extent necessary, which is based on public sentiment in our society. Given that the CRC has been incorporated domestically and in light of the legislative journey in Japan and Korea, the NHRC believes it is important for the Government to explore ways to prohibit corporal punishment in the home. 28. Recommendations: (1) Complete the Immigration Act amendment as soon as possible to ensure the best interests of children of new immigrants. (See §68 for details.) (2) Launch the review mechanism of impact assessment for children's rights as soon as possible. (3) Actively raise public awareness and promote human rights education, drawing on General Comment No. 20 of the CRC. Also, make reference to Japan's experience in promoting "new adult education" to help children understand, appreciate, and fulfill the measures related to their status as active citizens. (4) Actively communicate with the public on how to amend the Civil Code to prohibit corporal punishment in the home, taking into account international experience. 21 Child Rights Impact Assessment/Initial Checklist. https://crc.sfaa.gov.tw/Uploadfile/Document/36_20210719153804_0325875.pdf 21
