First report: Important developments and substantive issues, March-July 2016 2016, para. 41
Paragraph- Paragraph text
- In the first full year of office, the Special Rapporteur has visited 14 countries during 20 trips undertaken for the mandate holder's business. These have included visits to countries as geographically far apart as Australia, Brazil, New Zealand and the United States, as well as 10 European States. Although technically speaking these were "informal" country visits, on many occasions they included the full array of engagements carried out during traditional official visits of the Special Rapporteur, including meetings with ministers, ministry officials, intelligence services, oversight agencies, data protection commissioners, law enforcement, civil society and leading corporations. In an overwhelming number of cases, the Special Rapporteur was received in a very positive manner. The next 12 months will also include at least two and possibly three official country visits, all tentatively scheduled, one each on three different continents (Africa, Asia and Latin America).
