The International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights from public health-care providers to private health-care providers increase the health-care costs borne by the State party (arts. 9 and 12). 64. The Committee recommends that the State party review its legislative and administrative frameworks for health insurance to unify and simplify the system and make said revisions public with a view to ensuring transparency and reducing transactional and administrative burdens for health-care providers and patients, and strengthen its public health-care system with a view to lowering expenses linked to referrals to private health-care providers. In this regard, the Committee recalls its general comment No. 14 (2000) on the right to the highest attainable standard of health. Right to education 65. The Committee is concerned about reports of non-attendance and dropouts in the compulsory education system, in particular among children with disabilities and Bedouin children. The Committee is also concerned about the State party’s inability to ensure adequate funding for the education system in a context of austerity and reduced donor support (arts. 13 and 14). 66. The Committee recommends that the State party take all measures necessary to combat non-attendance and dropouts in the compulsory education system, in particular among children with disabilities and Bedouin children. The Committee also recommends that the State party allocate sufficient resources to the education system, including by engaging with international partners and donors to this effect. In this regard, the Committee recalls its general comments No. 11 (1999) on plans of action for primary education and No. 13 (1999) on the right to education. 67. The Committee is concerned about reports that students whose schools have been destroyed by the occupying Power are unable to pursue education (arts. 13 and 14). 68. The Committee recommends that the State party continue to take all adequate measures, including by engaging with civil society organizations and international partners, to ensure that students’ education is affected to the least possible degree in cases of destruction of their schools. Academic freedom 69. The Committee is concerned about reports of infringements on the academic freedom of university students and staff by the State party, including students and staff being detained by the State party’s security agencies in connection with the exercise of the freedom of expression and student union activities (arts. 13 and 14). 37
