A/HRC/8/52 page 179 for 2007-2013 will be attuned to the Government Programme for the development of education in rural areas in the years 2008-2013. The strategic aim of the programme is to upgrade the quality and level of education in rural areas. Implementation of the measures facilitating access for children from rural areas and small towns to quality education will continue until 2013. 2. Views expressed by member and observer States of the Council on the review outcome 533. No views were expressed by States members and observers of the Council. 3. General comments made by other relevant stakeholders 534. The Federation for Women and Family Planning (also on behalf of Action Canada for Population and Development, the Latin American Committee for the Defence of Women’s Rights and the International Women’s Rights Action Watch Asia-Pacific) indicated that, with reference to the National Programme against Domestic Violence (paras. 29 and 34 of the Working Group report), the legal framework for the protection of domestic violence victims is not effective. It noted that the possibility to isolate victims from perpetrators of violence is rarely used and only after the criminal proceedings are finished. It also noted that there is no effective infrastructure of shelters and centres assisting both the victim and the perpetrators. It further noted that too many people continue to believe that domestic violence is a private matter. In reference to the new provisions permitting to file an appeal when a doctor refuses to conduct an abortion (para. 51 of the Working Group report). It noted that access to abortion in Poland is restricted to three situations described in law and that Polish law does not foresee effective measures to review refusals of abortions. It noted that both legislative reforms and increased social awareness were necessary to tackle these problems. 535. The International Commission of Jurists drew attention to recommendation No. 20 and paragraph 30 of the report, as well as to the fact that the dialogue has not enabled full consideration of the issues of secret detentions or of renditions of terrorism suspects. It indicated that there is strong evidence that at least one CIA-run secret detention centre has existed in Poland, involving systematic gross violations of human rights. This imposes an international human rights law obligation on Poland to provide for a thorough, transparent, independent and impartial investigation. So far, the only national-level investigation has taken place in secret, with no published report, which fails to satisfy Poland’s duty to investigate alleged human rights violations. The International Commission of Jurists suggested that Poland establish a transparent and independent inquiry to investigate allegations of the involvement of Polish officials in secret detentions and renditions and make the outcomes of such investigations public. 536. Amnesty International welcomed the focus in the Working Group report on identity-based violence and discrimination. It shared the deep concern expressed by States during the review at the climate of fear that increasingly threatens the basic human rights of lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender people in Poland. It expressed the wish that Poland act upon the recommendations in the outcome report and take effective measures to combat discrimination; that it refrain from making public statements which could be interpreted as encouraging discrimination; that it ensure thorough and impartial investigations; and that those responsible be brought to justice.
