different government agencies and formulate national human rights policies, including the National Human Rights Action Plan (draft). However, the establishment of the division remains in the discussion stage, and a clear schedule remains to be disclosed. The NHRC is concerned that whether the responsibility will be transferred from the Committee for the Promotion of the Rights of People with Disabilities, Executive Yuan, which currently serves as the mediating entity in accordance with Article 33 of the CRPD, once the Human Rights Division is established. 136. According to information provided by the MOHW, as of the end of November 2020, persons with disabilities or representatives of disabled persons’ organizations constituted less than one-third of the members of some central- and local-level committees for the promotion of the rights of persons with disabilities. The ratio varies depending on the city and county, and some committees have 50% representation, while others have less than 40%. There were also discrepancies in the proportion of members with disabilities among committees, where proportions ranged between 9.09% and 43.48%. 137. The inclusion of persons with disabilities and representatives of disabled persons’ organizations and institutions in relevant committees and coordinating meetings by governments at all levels and competent authorities remains advisory, and fails to meet the full participation requirements stipulated in Article 33 of the CRPD. 93
