process with more than 900 professionals from different sectors (social action, justice, security, health, education, communication) , state and community organisations which led to the development of the National Policy on Child Protection (NEPP) and its validation in November 2012 by the reference Group. The establishment of an interdepartmental coordination mechanism should coordinate and monitor the implementation of the NEPP. This committee is relayed at the decentralised level by child protection regional committees chaired by the prefects. An multi-sectoral implementation action plan (2014-2018) of the NEPP was developed and costed. 5.8 Periodic review of placement (art. 25) According to article 142 of Law 70-483 of the Ivorian Civil Code on the minority, protection or assistance measures taken in respect of a minor can be amended or revoked at any time by the judge supervising guardianship cases. In criminal matters, Art. 800 of the Criminal Procedure Code provides for the opportunity to review the conditions of the placement ordered as part of legal proceedings against a minor, so that the rehabilitation process is not constrained by an inadequate measure. This article also provides that where a year or more has passed since the implementation of a decision ruling the placement of the minor outside the family, the parents or the guardian or the minor him/herself can submit a request for return or care restitution arguing on their ability to raise the child and the adequate change of the latter. Article 9 of Decree No. 82-334 of 2 April 1982 relating to people, settings or institutions hosting minors subject to a court order placement or educational assistance measure, establishes the elements on which the judge must be informed to decide on the review of the placement order and especially his/her conduct, his/her health, upbringing and education, as well as expenditures made for him/her. In practice, the trends underlying placements and resources provided to legal and social services do not lead to conducting the periodic review of placement. 6.1 Disabled children (art. 23) R 47. The Committee recommends that the State party review the situation of children with disabilities in terms of their access to suitable health care, education and jobs and put in place a programme of integrated action covering all concerns.
