A/HRC/5/21 page 60 7. As regards special procedures, the Council decides that: (a) OHCHR shall immediately prepare, maintain and periodically update a public list of eligible candidates in a standardized format, which shall include personal data, areas of expertise and professional experience. Upcoming vacancies of mandates shall be publicized; (b) A consultative group will be established to propose to the President a list of candidates who possess the highest qualifications for each mandate and meets the general criteria and particular requirements. The Group will be assisted by OHCHR; (c) The Council will continue the review of mandates through an individual consideration of each mandate during its session of 2007/2008. With this purpose the Council will extend the mandates until they will be reviewed, in accordance with annex I [of the President’s text on institution-building]. 8. In order to implement the proposals relating to the public list and the consultative group, one additional new post for OHCHR at the P-3 level is required. For the biennium 2006-2007 the workload will be met through temporary arrangements such as the use of a vacant post for the reason given in paragraph 6 above. As from biennium 2008-2009, it is proposed that a new post be established at the P-3 level to implement the terms of the President’s statement. 9. Total estimated resource requirements will amount to: Section 23, Human rights Section 28E, Administration, Geneva Total 2006-2007 2008-2009 United States dollars 156 200 17 400 173 600 10. Provision has not been made in the proposed programme budget for the biennium 2008-2009 for the above-mentioned activities, as illustrated under paragraph 9 above. It does not appear that it will be possible to absorb the estimated additional requirements of $151,200 within the provisions for the 2008-2009 biennium. Therefore, an additional appropriation by the General Assembly will be required for the biennium 2008-2009. 11. As regards the extension of existing special mandates, related provisions have been included under Section 23, Human rights, of the programme budget for the biennium 2006-2007 and requested under the proposed programme budget for the biennium 2008-2009. 12. The Human Rights Council Advisory Committee will replace the Sub-Commission on the Promotion and Protection of Human Rights. The Council will decide that the Advisory Committee shall convene up to two sessions for a maximum of 10 working days per year. Additional sessions may be scheduled on an ad hoc basis with prior approval of the Council. 13. In order to implement the above-mentioned proposals, resources of US$ 710,600 for travel and daily subsistence allowance (DSA) for 18 Committee members attending two sessions annually will be needed under Section 23, Human rights, starting from the biennium 2008-2009.
