National Human Rights Commission – Papua New Guinea does not currently have a Human Rights Commission.  However, in 1997 the government approved, in principle, the establishment of a human rights commission, a commitment whish was reaffirmed in 2007.  In 2008, a draft organic law on the establishment of a human rights commission was prepared, but this draft bill has yet to go through the parliamentary process.  Once endorsed, it is anticipated that the Human Rights Commission will be operational in 2012.
