On the existing national preventive mechanism against torture established following the ratification of the OP-CAT, the Commissioner explained the two-level structure of the mechanism with one institution at the federal level and a second commission serving the level of the Länder. Germany was aware of discussions and criticism on whether the two institutions were adequately resourced and funded. This was also an issue raised during the visit of the Subcommittee to the Committee against Torture in April 2013. Germany was awaiting the recommendations of the Subcommittee and would respond once those recommendations had been received. Germany remained committed to fulfilling its obligations under the OP-CAT. 90.

The principle of inclusion had become a primary guideline for the implementation of the Convention. 93.
