Six years ago, the General Assembly, following a recommendation by the Committee on the Rights of the Child in accordance with article 45 (c) of the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child, invited the Secretary-General to commission an in-depth Global Study on Children Deprived of Liberty. We welcome this Study by the Independent Expert, containing research findings and recommendations for future actions.
