Council of Europe; EU

Joint submission to the Drafting Group on Human Rights and Business of the Council of Europe

Such an instrument should essentially deal with State–based judicial mechanisms given the Council of Europe’s long-standing expertise in this field and since other instruments have already provided important guidance on companybased grievance mechanisms.
