"The European Union is preparing to appoint its very first thematic special representative: the Special Representative for Human Rights (SRHR). Given the strategic importance of this post, I supported Parliament’s recommendation to the Council during the plenary sitting. This constructive and balanced text aims to refine the selection criteria for the candidate and to specify the nature and scope of his or her mandate. Parliament therefore reminded the Council that the objective of this nomination was to strengthen the coherence and visibility of EU actions in the protection and promotion of human rights. For this purpose, the SRHR must have a sufficiently long mandate (2.5 years) to be renewable more than once (to capitalise on experience). Furthermore, the SRHR should be selected in accordance with objective criteria on the basis of his or her skills, experience and international reputation. Finally, the SRHR must have the financial and human resources needed for the full exercise of his or her mandate."@en1
