The Independent Commission for Human Rights inscribed on the list32. There is a range of rights available to Palestine as an observer state, although all of them have some limitations or restrictions. The right to make interventions is specific, allowing a precursory explanation or the recall of relevant General Assembly resolutions being made only once by the President of the General Assembly at the start of each session of the Assembly. There is also the right of reply, and the right to have its communications relating to the sessions and work of the General Assembly issued and circulated directly, and without an intermediary, as official documents of the General Assembly. Similarly to this is the right to have its communications relating to the sessions and work of all international conferences convened under the auspices of the General Assembly issued and circulated directly, and without intermediary, as official documents of those conferences. Allowing a larger degree of participation and involvement, Palestine also has the right to raise points of order relating to any proceedings involving it, but only provided that it does not include the right to challenge the decision of the presiding officer. Of particular significance is the right to co-sponsor draft resolutions and decisions that make reference to Palestine, though such draft resolutions and decisions can only be put to a vote upon request from a member state. And finally, in regard to seating, the seating for Palestine is to be arranged immediately after member states but before the other observers when it participates as a non-member state observer; this includes an allocation of six seats in the General Assembly hall, but without Palestine having any right to vote or to put forward candidates in the General Assembly. In spite of some of these limitations, Palestine does have the right to put forward candidates or nominate itself for any conference convened under the auspices of the General Assembly. In the same vein, it also has the right to be seated in any meeting or part of meeting involving the election of permanent judges or ad litem judges; this right was exercised by the Holy See in the International Criminal Tribunal for the Former Yugoslavia and the International Criminal Tribunal for Rwanda. This right also applies to participation in the sessions of the HRC since the General Assembly’s decision concerning the creation of the HRC allows it to follow the action mechanisms of the General Assembly’s commissions. With regard to the participation of the non-member observer states, specialized organizations, non-governmental organizations and intergovernmental organizations in the sessions of the HRC, this is to be determined through decisions made by the Economic and Social Council Resolution No. (1996\31) and the practical experience of the HRC itself33. 32 U.N. General Assembly Resolution A/58/314, Participation of the Holy See in the Work of the United Nations. 33 Clause (11) of the GA›s resolution No. (251/60), on the founding of the HRC. 16
