A/HRC/19/70 environmental justice, accountability and justiciability. Additional means should be identified to hold national and international actors accountable, and to employ new instruments or better utilize existing tools for strengthening the justiciability of the right to development. 63. Efforts are made to utilize the right to development as a normative framework for policy coherence and systemic integration in international law, by deploying an array of regulatory mechanisms and instruments while ensuring participation of civil society as development actors through multi-stakeholder mechanisms. 64. Governments create and support secure, inclusive and innovative avenues and forms of free, active and meaningful participation and empowerment for development decision-making. Public budget monitoring was recognized as an important tool to promote the right to development. Such monitoring would consider key questions, including participation in development, distribution of its benefits, rights and freedoms and collection and distribution of public funds. 65. Debates on achievement of MDGs and any post-2015 development vision must explicitly incorporate multidimensional aspects of the right to development and all human rights. There is a need to focus on implementing existing human rights obligations at the core of development agendas. 66. Consideration is given to the proposal of the levy of a financial transaction tax that would ensure that resources generated are allocated to poverty alleviation and development. 67. The occasion of Earth Summit 2012 should be seized upon as an opportunity to focus on the mutually reinforcing pillars of the Rio Declaration on Environment and Development and the Declaration on the Right to Development and ensure that right to development is advanced through Rio+20. 68. The Human Rights Council should take the lead in mainstreaming multidimensional aspects of the right to development and all human rights in the mandate and programmes of all United Nations bodies and other intergovernmental organizations; and in making use of the right to development and all human rights as analytical tools in policymaking. 19
