The Committee on Foreign Affairs adopted the\nown-initiative report drafted by José Ignacio SALAFRANCA\nSÁNCHEZ-NEYRA (PPE, ES) containing a recommendation to the\nCouncil on the EU Special Representative for Human\nRights.
\nMembers recall that Article 21 of the Treaty on\nEuropean Union reaffirms the EUs commitment to promoting\nhuman rights and democracy in all its external actions while\nguaranteeing coherence and consistency across these areas and\nbetween its external action and its other policies and that Article\n33 of the TEU provides the legal basis for the appointment of the\nEU Special Representative (EUSR) for Human Rights.
\nGiven that the European Parliament has repeatedly\ncalled for the appointment of an EU Special Representative for\nHuman Rights (resolution of 16 December\n2010 as well as its resolution of 18 April 2012),\nMembers address, once again, a recommendation on the same\nissue.
\nThey recall that the EUSR for HR should strengthen\nthe visibility and coherence of the EUs Human Rights\nPolicy as a fundamental part of its Common Foreign and Security\nPolicy (CFSP) and contribute to raising the EUs human rights\nprofile worldwide.
\nThe committee addresses the following recommendations\nto the Council:
\nAppointment and the role of the European Parliament in\nthis context
\nMandate
\nNecessary professional qualifications
\nSpecific missions
\nFinancial and human resources
\nThe draft recommendation calls for a reference to be\nmade to this recommendation adopted in plenary to be included in\nthe future mandate of the EUSR for HR.
\nThe European Parliament adopted by 567 votes to 32,\nwith 80 abstentions, a recommendation to the Council on the EU\nSpecial Representative for Human Rights.
