Executive Summary The Division commenced work on the development of a framework for a National Plan of Action for Business and Human Rights in July 2014, and had since organised a round-table discussion (RTD) with plans to conduct interviews with relevant stakeholders as part of the consultation process the following year. The project, funded by the Foreign and Commonwealth Office (FCO), is expected to be completed by March 2015. The International Coordination Division assisted the Commission in its work at the international and regional levels by participating in activities and meetings organised by the UN International Coordinating Committee of NHRIs for the Promotion and Protection of Human Rights (ICC) and the Human Rights Council (HRC). This was in addition to the Commission’s chairmanships of the Commonwealth Forum of NHRIs (CFNHRI) and the Southeast Asia NHRIs Forum (SEANF) and membership to the Asia Pacific Forum (APF) of NHRIs. The Commission concluded its tenure as a member of the ICC Bureau in 2014 after serving two terms for a period of five years. The Commission, as an “A status” accredited NHRI, is allowed formal participation at the United Nations (UN) HRC.
