A/HRC/22/69 of appointment. Those online reports are updated on a monthly basis (with an approximate three-month time delay) and may be downloaded; permanent missions thus have convenient, instant access to often-requested data or reports. The full list of staff of the Secretariat is now available exclusively on this platform. Since the first release of the tool, the Office of Human Resources Management has made a number of enhancements, such as adding reports that show Member States the separations, appointments and forecasted retirement of their nationals, as well as the forecasted retirement of all P-5 to D-2 staff members. With HR Insight, Member States therefore have access to information similar to that contained in a Secretariat report (or in the present one), but at the level of staff members, unlike composition reports, which show the information at the aggregated level and are only issued annually. 8. The table in annex I provides a breakdown of all OHCHR staff members in the Professional category and above who have been selected through the established recruitment process (“regular” staff) against both regular budget posts subject to geographical distribution and extrabudgetary posts, by nationality, grade and sex as at 31 December 2012. 9. The table in annex II provides a breakdown of the following categories of additional OHCHR staff in the Professional category and above not included in the table in annex I by nationality, grade and sex as at 31 December 2012: (a) Staff holding appointments of less than one year; (b) Staff charged to general temporary assistance funds; (c) Staff employed as technical cooperation project personnel. 10. In paragraph 14, section IX, of its resolution 63/250, the General Assembly reemphasized that the system of geographical ranges was designed to apply to countries rather than to regions or groups. This principle was recently reiterated by the Joint Inspection Unit in a comparative analysis and benchmarking framework on staff recruitment in United Nations system organizations, focusing on – gender balance and geographical distribution (JIU/NOTE/2012/3). The data in the present report are therefore provided by country and listed in alphabetical order. 11.
