CRC/C/SAU/CO/2 page 17 9. Optional Protocols to the Convention on the Rights of the Child 76. The Committee recommends that the State party expedite the process of ratification of the Optional Protocols to the Convention on the Rights of the Child on the sale of children, child prostitution and child pornography, and on the involvement of children in armed conflict. 10. Follow-up and dissemination Follow-up 77. The Committee recommends that the State party take all appropriate measures to ensure full implementation of the present recommendations, inter alia, by transmitting them to the members of the Council of Ministers and the Consultative Council or Majlis al-Shura, and to provincial councils, when applicable, for appropriate consideration and further action. Dissemination 78. The Committee further recommends that the second periodic report and written replies submitted by the State party and related recommendations (concluding observations) it adopted be made widely available in the languages of the country, including (but not exclusively) through the Internet, to the public at large, civil society organizations, youth groups, professional groups, and children in order to generate debate and awareness of the Convention, its implementation and monitoring. 11. Next report 79. The Committee invites the State party to submit its next periodic report before the due date established under the Convention for the fourth periodic report, i.e. 24 February 2013. This report should combine the third and fourth periodic reports. However, owing to the large number of reports received by the Committee every year and the consequent significant delay between the date of submission of a State party’s report and its consideration by the Committee, the Committee invites the State party to submit a consolidated third and fourth report 18 months before its due date, that is by 24 August 2011. This report should not exceed 120 pages (see CRC/C/118). The Committee expects the State party to report every five years thereafter, as foreseen by the Convention. -----
