2013, which was submitted to His Majesty the King in September 2014 in conjunction with the end of the constitutional term of the legislative authority, represented by the House of Representatives and the Shura Council, upon the end of the third legislative term. Legislative elections were held in the second half of November 2014 and a new government Cabinet was formed subsequently. Thus, it was not possible to follow up and implement the recommendations of the first annual report by the various constitutional authorities. This report consists of three chapters preceded by an introduction and an introductory chapter. The introductory chapter deals with the development of the National Institution for Human Rights work in terms of the legal framework governing it through the enactment of Law No. 26 of 2014 on the Establishment of the National Institution for Human Rights. It reviews the recommendations stated in NIHR first annual report and indicates the share of each constitutional authority of those recommendations. Chapter I indicates compliance of the provisions of Law No. 26 of 2014 on the Establishment of the National Institution for Human Rights with “Paris Principles” relating to the Status of National Institutions for the Promotion and Protection of Human Rights. The chapter reviews the basic requirements of “Paris Principles” for the establishment of such institutions and the practices that effectively promote compliance with these principles. Chapter II states the role of the National Institution for Human Rights in the promotion of human rights, and its efforts in the protection of those rights. Chapter III sheds light on key issues that have a direct impact on the reality of human rights issues, including anti-trafficking in Persons, the right to nomination and election, and protection from enforced disappearance. Finally, NIHR hopes that this report, along with its first report, will promote human rights reality in the Kingdom, in line with its international obligations arising from its ratification of or accession to human rights international instruments, or those generated by the universal periodic review before the Human Rights Council. The ultimate objective of this report is to achieve the best practices as to enjoying the various rights and public freedoms, and turn human rights into a lifestyle. 9
