A/HRC/38/44/Add.3 III. Tabulation (A) of cases transmitted and replies received to communications sent during the reporting period 44. In Tabulation (A) all communications have been grouped by country, with countries listed alphabetically according to their names in English. The electronic version of the present document has each communication sent and reply received hyperlinked, and clicking on them will open the communication sent and the reply from the concerned State, respectively, as uploaded on the OHCHR website. All communications are also available in the Special Procedures communication reports. 45. Each communication is referenced as urgent appeal (UA), allegation letter (AL), joint urgent appeal (JUA) and joint allegation letter (JAL). This is followed by the date when the communication was issued, as well as the case number and, when applicable, the State’s reply. A. Violations alleged 46. In Tabulation (A) on communications and replies, the violations are classified into the following categories, using the short versions in parentheses (see paragraph 19 above for the full definitions). B. Character of replies received 47. The replies received have been classified according to the following six categories designed to assist the Human Rights Council in its task of evaluating the responses received to the communications sent within the reporting period and the effectiveness of the mandate: (a) “No response” denotes the absence of a response to a communication sent within the reporting period; (b) “Acknowledgement of receipt” refers to a reply acknowledging receipt that the communication was received and/or that it has been transmitted to the relevant State authorities; (c) “Substantive response” denotes a reply that is fully or partially responsive to the allegations and/or that substantively clarifies the facts. It does not, however, imply that the action taken necessarily complies with international human rights law. (d) “Translation awaited” indicates that a response has been received, but has not yet been translated by the relevant services of the United Nations. 16
