5. Hence the goals which the proposal seeks to achieve represented in the preparation of a comprehensive strategic plan include mechanisms and procedures necessary for dealing with human rights reports provided they include integrated plans to confront the misinformation stated in those reports and revealing the true picture of the Kingdom, which the NIHR finds as theoretically actualized through the jurisdictions assigned to the High Coordinating Committee for Human Rights. 6. However, it is the view of the NIHR that the proposal entails a call that emanates from a keenness to protect the public interest in terms of the necessity of expediting the preparation of a plan or a comprehensive national strategy for human rights at the level of the Kingdom of Bahrain, in which coalesce all efforts whether the relevant governmental quarters or other powers and quarters such as the legislative authority through the Shura Council and the House of Representatives, and the NIHR which considers the Paris Principles as a legal frame of reference, in addition to the civil society organizations operating in the human rights field, and it would not be possible to ignore the role played by labor unions and professional associations, particular those that are connected to the segment deserving of care (woman, child, elderly, physically handicapped) along with the importance for the strategy to rest upon a process of societal consultation which is of immense importance for crystallizing the seminal aims of this plan, given that they are quarters directly or indirectly concerned with human rights. ‫اﻟﺘﻘﺮﻳﺮ اﻟﺴﻨﻮي اﻟﺜﺎﻟﺚ‬ ‫ﻟﻠﻤﺆﺳﺴﺔ اﻟﻮﻃﻨﻴﺔ ﻟﺤﻘﻮق اﻧﺴﻨﺎم‬ ‫ ـ ﻣﻤﻠﻜﺔ اﻟﺒﺤﺮﻳﻦ‬2015 ‫ﻟﻌﺎم‬ 7. Moreover, the NIHR perceives the importance of laying down a mechanism to deal with particular aspects related to events and developments pertaining to human rights, so as to undercut any pretext or legitimate reason for issuing reports or statements damaging to the image of the Kingdom, such by means of clarifying what relates to any criticism with transparency and realism through the following: a) Ascertain the occurrence of a violation and establish its credence, through gathering evidence and communicating with the relevant official quarters in the Kingdom, with a view to establishing the details of what occurred. B) In case it is proven that the violation did not actually take place the decided mechanism should be capable of refuting it by providing evidence and proof that it did not occur. C) In case it is proven that the violation took place it is necessary to reveal the truth, the actual events and the measures taken, particularly those measures aiming to prevent the recurrence of the violation, and specifically action taken concerning those concerned with applying the law, such given that the international organizations are interested in remedial action and are keen on the measures taken for the violation not to recur and do not desire hearing justifications. In this context it is necessary to allude to the actual reality, and to indicate the measures taken, such given that admission of what took place and endeavoring to rectify the situation and bringing those that committed violation to justice is what bolsters credibility and undercuts the allegations when they are exploited for human rights purposes. D) It is important to emphasize that the convergence of all the governmental and non-governmental efforts in the Kingdom represents the only way to human dignity and endeavoring to promote and safeguard human rights, and this demands serious efforts to lay down a national human rights strategy, in order to manifest what the Kingdom has achieved across the previous decades, and to underscore what is required to safeguard the rights and freedoms of the coming generations of the sons of this munificent homeland. 46
