Paragraphe
Paragraph text
While broadly satisfied with the collaboration to date, the Special Rapporteur recommends that more governments engage with the mandate and, as other governments have done during the first year of activity, come forward to consult on draft privacy laws and related areas such as surveillance when these are still at an early stage. Furthermore, the Special Rapporteur strongly encourages and appreciates participation in, and facilitation of, initiatives organized by the mandate holder, such as IIOF2016 or informal country visits or various workshop conferences.
