E/C.12/ARM/CO/2-3 (a) Improve the capacity of line ministries for public finance management, facilitate the dialogue between line ministries and the Ministry of Finance, ensure that resources are effectively allocated according to programme budgeting criteria, and increase political awareness of the need to allocate substantial additional resources to health and education; (b) Regularly assess whether the maximum available resources have been used to progressively achieve the full realization of the rights recognized in the Covenant, taking into account the Committee’s statement of September 2007 on the obligation to take steps to the “maximum of available resources” (E/C.12/2007/1); (c) Ensure respect for, and protection and fulfilment of, economic, social and cultural rights under the Covenant when negotiating development assistance projects and programmes. 10. The Committee is concerned about reports of the lack of independence of the judiciary in the State party. The Committee recommends that the State party take legal, administrative and other necessary measures to guarantee the independence of the judiciary as a means of safeguarding the enjoyment of human rights, including economic, social and cultural rights. The Committee further recommends that the State party continue its efforts to ensure that judges, lawyers and prosecutors are trained on the justiciability of economic, social and cultural rights and invites the State party to provide detailed information on relevant jurisprudence of domestic courts. In this regard, the Committee refers the State party to its general comments No. 3 (1990) on the nature of States parties’ obligations and No. 9 (1998) on the domestic application of the Covenant. 11. The Committee is concerned at the absence of a comprehensive legal framework against discrimination covering all grounds for discrimination enumerated in the Covenant. The Committee recommends that the State party adopt comprehensive antidiscrimination legislation, guaranteeing protection for all against discrimination in the enjoyment of economic, social and cultural rights, as stipulated in article 2, paragraph 2, of the Covenant and, in this regard, draws the State party’s attention to its general comment No. 20 (2009) on non-discrimination in economic, social and cultural rights. 12. The Committee notes with concern the prevailing discrimination against persons with disabilities in the area of economic, social and cultural rights, as well as the social segregation of persons with disabilities in all areas. The Committee further notes the lack of information provided by the State party on measures taken to address the prevailing stigmatization of persons with disabilities (art. 2, para. 2; art. 6). The Committee recommends that the State party address the social stigma experienced by persons with disabilities, through information campaigns and other awareness-raising efforts, and adopt the draft law on the rights of persons with disabilities and their social inclusion, including provisions on “reasonable accommodation” for persons with disabilities and accessibility of public services. The Committee also recommends that the State party step up its efforts to provide vocational training and employment opportunities to persons with disabilities, as well as provide effective monitoring and enforcement of the compulsory employment quotas for persons with disabilities which will be phased in by the State party as of 1 January 2015. 13.
