“The SCA acknowledges that the DPS has engaged with the international human rights system to a substantial degree. It further acknowledges that the DPS reports that it is not able to fully participate in all periodic reviews of Spain as a result of resource limitations. 

The Paris Principles recognize that engagement with the international human rights system, and in particular with the Human Rights Council and its mechanisms, can be an effective tool for NHRIs in the promotion and protection of human rights domestically. 

The SCA encourages the DPS to continue this engagement, and to advocate for additional resources to ensure its ability to fully participate in and cooperate with the international human rights system. 

In considering its engagement with the international and regional human rights systems, the SCA encourages the DPS to continue its cooperation with OHCHR, GANHRI, ENNHRI and others NHRIs, as well as international and national NGOs and civil society organizations.”
