8. With regard to legislative, policy and other related measures, while appreciating the measures that the Government has taken so far, the Committee recommends that the Government of Senegal take all the necessary measures to: (a) Hasten the preparation and adoption process of the draft Children’s Code and ensure that it addresses all areas covered by the African Children’s Charter; (b) Finalize and adopt bill to revise the penal code and the code of criminal procedure; (c) Pass the draft law establishing legal status and regulations for Daaras or Koranic schools in order to stop the exploitation of children; (d) Finalize and pass a decree establishing the National Children's Parliament; (e) Finalize and adopt the bill of law establishing the Child Ombudsman; (f) Finalize and adopt Bill to reform of civil status in the family code; (g) Finalize and adopt Children's Advocate Bill; and (h) Speed up the adoption of the draft amendments to the Labor Code, which aim to better protect children from work and at work place. 9. While commending the establishment of a number of institutions, such as the National Inter-Sectorial Committee for Child Protection in 2014, Ministerial Department of Good Governance and Child Protection and state structures in charge for improving the life of vulnerable children, the Committee remains concerned about the limited financial and human resources allocated for the different institutions to implement the child protection system, the challenge faced in the coordination of shared tasks and the unclear and overlapping mandates of state institutions working on the rights of the child, and the lack of clear procedures of coordination between such institutions. 10. The Committee thus recommends the Government of Senegal to ensure that the different institutions on child protection are provided with explicit and defined responsibilities to coordinate all activities in relation to the implementation of the African Children’s Charter; stressing that assignment of mandates and responsibilities should be fully informed by research and the best interests of children. The Committee would also like to recommend the Government of Senegal to establish a robust coordination system, which is permanent, integrated, stable, effective, participatory, adequately accountable and guided by the best interests of the child. Moreover, the Committee calls up on the state party to make sure that the different institution on child protection get the necessary human, technical and financial resources for their effective operation. 4
