E/C.12/MNE/CO/1 and prosecutors are trained on the justiciability of economic, social and cultural rights. National human rights institution 8. While noting the adoption of amendments to the Law on the Protector of Human Rights and Freedoms of Montenegro, the Committee notes that the Protector of Human Rights and Freedoms has yet to be accredited by the International Coordinating Committee of National Institutions for the Promotion and Protection of Human Rights, and expresses concern at reports that its effectiveness is hampered by a lack of staff and of financial resources, and by frequent staff turnover (art. 1). The Committee recommends that the State party enhance the capacity of the Protector of Human Rights and Freedoms so as to enable its effective functioning as a national human rights institution in accordance with the Paris Principles (General Assembly resolution 48/134, annex), including by providing it with adequate human and financial resources. Corruption 9. The Committee expresses concern at the extent of corruption, particularly in the areas of construction and spatial planning, education, health care and public procurement, and its impact on the enjoyment of economic, social and cultural rights. It is also concerned at the lack of effective investigation, prosecution and conviction in high-level corruption cases, as well as at reports of intimidation and violence against journalists who investigate and report on organized crime (art. 2, para. 1). The State party should, as a matter of priority, address the root causes of corruption, and adopt all necessary legislative and policy measures to effectively combat corruption and the related impunity, including investigation and prosecution of highlevel corruption cases. The Committee recommends that the State party regularly evaluate the impact of measures taken to combat corruption, and provide detailed information in its next periodic report. The State party should also ensure that individuals who investigate and report on organized crime are protected effectively from any form of intimidation or violence. Non-discrimination 10. The Committee regrets the lack of comprehensive statistical data available to identify discrimination in the enjoyment of the Covenant rights on the basis of the different grounds outlined in article 2, paragraph 2, of the Covenant. In addition, while noting the adoption of amendments to the Law on Amendments to the Law on the Prohibition of Discrimination, in March 2014, the Committee is concerned that members of national and ethnic minorities, refugees, displaced persons, Roma, persons with disabilities, and members of other marginalized groups continue to face discrimination with regard to the enjoyment of their economic, social and cultural rights (art. 2, para. 2). The Committee recommends that the State party intensify its efforts to promote equality and combat discrimination against members of national and ethnic minorities, refugees and displaced persons, including persons of Roma, Ashkali and Egyptian origin, persons with disabilities, and other marginalized persons and groups, particularly in relation to their access to employment, social security, housing, health care and education. It also recommends that the State party ensure the systematic application of anti-discrimination legislation, taking due account of all prohibited grounds for discrimination as contained in article 2, paragraph 2, of the Covenant and 3
