A/HRC/22/59
(a)
Support the recommendations made by the commission, including
through transmission of the present report to the Secretary-General for the attention
of the Security Council in order that appropriate action may be taken in the light of
the deteriorating situation, and through a formal reporting process to the General
Assembly and to the Security Council, bearing in mind the added value of the United
Nations as an impartial body committed to human rights and the rule of law;
(b)
Underline the need to implement international human rights and
humanitarian law effectively in all situations and by all parties to the conflict;
(c)
Address the issue of accountability of those responsible for international
crimes by countering the phenomenon of impunity and through referral to justice at
the national and international levels, in addition to other channels to promote truth
and reconciliation, and social recovery and reintegration of victims.
180.
The commission recommends that the Security Council:
(a)
Support its recommendations;
(b)
In the light of the gravity of the violations and crimes perpetrated by
Government forces and anti-Government groups, take appropriate action and commit
to human rights and the rule of law by means of referral to justice, possibly to the
International Criminal Court, bearing in mind that, in the context of the Syrian Arab
Republic, only the Security Council is competent to refer the situation to the Court;
(c)
Enhance the enforcement and implementation of international human
rights and humanitarian law through the range of powers and measures at its
disposal, including to address effectively the violations of the rights of the child,
particularly in relation to the impact of armed conflicts on children and their
involvement in hostilities.
