101. Facilitate access for victims to the
national human rights institution by creating
regional and local offices.
National Human Rights Institution
According to Law No. 6701, each and every natural person and
legal person who claim to have suffered from violations of nondiscrimination can apply to the Institution. Applications to the
Institution may be filed via governorates in provinces and subprovincial governorates in sub-provinces.
The Working Group reiterates this
recommendation to the HREI.
Furthermore, the Law has regulated that when deemed necessary
and upon a proposal by the Institution, bureaus attached to the
Institution may be set up through a Presidential Decree.
The institution has not set up any bureaus yet.
On the other hand, Article 1 of the Regulation on the
Establishment, Duties and Working Principles of Provincial and
District Human Rights Boards has regulated that Provincial and
District Human Rights Boards have been set up in order to protect
and promote human rights, raise awareness on human rights in
the society, and examine and investigate allegations of human
rights violations.
In the light of the Provisional Article 1 of the Law, Provincial and
Sub-provincial Human Rights Boards has remained operation
until a new arrangement is done by the Presidency. Therefore,
until the establishment of the local ofices of HREI, these Boards
act as the local bureaus of the Institution.
