V. Topic details 1.1 Ensuring a robust regulatory basis for the NHRC’s operations 1. Reason for selection The NHRC’s ability to exercise its full authority hinges on the passing of Chapter 5-1 (“National Human Rights Commission’s Authority”) of the bill for the partial amendment of the Control Act, which is currently under deliberation in the Legislative Yuan. To ensure that the NHRC’s authority has a sound regulatory basis, the Commission must continue to lobby for the passage of the bill and the formulation of other administrative rules that govern its operations. 2. Significance The NHRC will continue to work with the Legislative Yuan to ensure the passage of the amendments and the formulation of related laws and regulations. The NHRC will also propose annual administrative rules formulation plans to develop a complete set of internal regulations governing its organization, division of labor, handling of tasks, and management of human resources. 3. Expected outcomes Ensuring that the NHRC has a solid regulatory basis for the exercise of its authority; formulating standard operating procedures to streamline the NHRC’s operations. 22
