The Commission on Human Rights and Administrative Justice (CHRAJ) has disclosed that it is facing constraints in fulfilling its various responsibilities due to inadequate funding.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Commission made this known at the launch of CHRAJ\u2019s 30th-anniversary celebration, held under the theme, \u201cCHRAJ at 30: Promoting and Protecting Human Rights and Ensuring Transparency and Accountability in Public Service Delivery.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cThe major challenge the commission has faced is inadequate funding. As a result of inadequate funding, the office is constrained in the delivery of its mandate,\u201d CHRAJ Commissioner Joseph Whittal said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
He said that his office, in collaboration with the Public Sector Reform for Results Project (PSRRP), has identified several challenges within the commission\u2019s legal framework, policies, processes, and operations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
As a result, Mr. Whittal said they plan to prepare amendments to the Commission\u2019s Act, Act 456, and its Constitutional Instrument C.I 67 for review and passage into law by Parliament.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
