05/06/2008

HUMAN RIGHTS COUNCIL
8th session
02 June – 18 June 2008

[Excerpt from the statement]

This is why it is time to move on from the stage of studies, however useful they may be, to the establishment of effective mechanisms at international level that will also help States to control and regulate the activities of TNCs headquartered or operating on their territory. In this context, we should mention the analyses of the United Nations Research Institute for Social Development (UNRISD) and the High Commissioner for Human Rights.
