Legal capacity
91.
The Special Rapporteur recommends that the Government:
(a)
Appoint a law commission to review the current legal framework, which
allows the restriction or deprivation of legal capacity of persons with disabilities, with
the aim of abolishing or revoking all laws and regulations on substitute decisionmaking, including guardianship, and replace them with supported decision-making
arrangements;
(b)
Guarantee the exercise of full legal capacity to all persons with
disabilities, including those with psychosocial or intellectual disabilities, in all aspects
of life, and provide them with access to the support they may require to take informed
decisions;
(c)
Implement a pilot project on supported decision-making and undertake
research on formal and informal support arrangements (for example, support
networks, support agreements, independent advocacy, peer and self-support groups
and advance directives) with the participation of persons with disabilities;
(d)
Promote and provide training on the rights of persons with disabilities to
equal recognition before the law and on supported decision-making arrangements for
public officials, service providers, persons with disabilities and their families, and
other relevant actors.
International cooperation
92.
The Special Rapporteur recommends that the Government:
(a)
Request recipients of multilateral and official development assistance to
disaggregate information by disability and report on how persons with disabilities
have benefited from such assistance;
(b)
Request United Nations entities to report on the implementation of the
United Nations disability inclusion strategy in cases where Norway sits on their
executive boards.
