Acknowledging the Government’s efforts to ensure accessible health care for even the most remote communities, the Special Rapporteur welcomes the implementation of the Integrated Community Health Services (SISCA) programme at the local level. However, she notes that SISCA requires additional support in terms of staffing, training, and transportation in order to increase its effectiveness, widen the scope of its coverage and scale up nutrition interventions. The Government’s commitment to establish primary health care facilities in every suco by 2015 is to be commended. 61. The Special Rapporteur calls on the Government to ensure that health-care services adequately accommodate and respond to the needs of persons with disabilities, who comprise around 5 per cent of the population. 70 Of particular concern are the documented cases of persons with mental illnesses held in permanent or long-term restraints by families or community members, as no State-run facility exists for the long-term care of persons with mental illnesses.71 While the Special Rapporteur welcomes the adoption of a National Mental Health Policy and a Community-Based Rehabilitation Strategy, the Government must ensure that sufficient human and financial resources are dedicated to its implementation. C. Right to housing and access to land 62. The extensive destruction and violence committed by the Indonesian military and pro-Indonesian militias following the referendum in 1999 seriously affected the housing stock and infrastructure in the country. 72 Taking power at the time of independence in 2002, the new Government committed to prioritizing measures to address the severe backlog in available housing. The National Development Plan, issued at the inception of the new Government, prominently incorporated the goal of ―adequate shelter for all‖. 63. Ten years on, adequate housing is still out of reach for many Timorese. It is estimated that 58 per cent of communities live in poor housing conditions, 73 with the majority having no access to clean water and sanitation. Yet the political will to address the serious lack of adequate housing appears to have weakened; for example, there is no explicit mention of the right to adequate housing in the Strategic Development Plan 20112030. 64. Progress on implementing the Millennium Development Goals Suco Program, adopted by the Government in early 2011, has been limited. Under this programme, five houses would be built in each of the 2,228 aldeias annually, resulting in more than 55,000 houses being built by 2015.74 From a human rights perspective, this project raises a number of serious concerns, including with respect to the lack of objective eligibility criteria and complaint mechanisms; the absence of meaningful and effective participation of community members; the cultural adequacy and sustainability of importing prefabricated 70 71 72 73 74 Timor-Leste Census 2010, vol. 4, p. xiv.
