Proposals redaction (delegates):

For one proposal to be considered as a “well written proposal”, the committee must
be qualified to develop it according to its capabilities. Also it has to be able to
answer the following questions (WH Questions):

1. ¿What? (main idea of the proposal)

2. ¿Why? (reasons and motives that justify making the proposal)
3. ¿How? (action plan)
4. ¿When? (when will the proposal is thought to be launched and for what
period of time is it going to be implemented)
5. ¿Where? (place or country where the proposal will be implemented)
6. ¿Who? (delegations that will cooperate in the implementation of the
proposal)
7. ¿How is it gonna be economically financed? (delegations or organisms
that will give money for the proposal to be implemented, the committee can
 only exhort 3 NGOs in the whole resolution and cannot force any delegation
or organism to be part of the proposal).
8. Some recommendations: be aware of the faculties and capabilities that the
committee has, have a continuous and wide communication within the chair
in order to solve all the doubts, write the proposals in the specific format
from the beginning to avoid wasting time rewriting them once they are done,
focus on the main topic being debated and bear in mind the Model´s agenda
and schedule.

The Commission on Crime Prevention and Criminal Justice,

Desiring the reinforcement of an existent organization in which officers appointed

by the organization would monitorate hate crime cases - the officers would make
sure that the cases are being treated with total legitimacy and transparency,
Expecting that in the several countries that allow the implementation of these
resolutions, they will be part of the observation of law enforcement subjects and
will take part as an insurance for transparency,
Noting with approval that after the crime, victims will have the right to be given
the necessary information provided by the police and the government,
Emphasizing to other delegations the importance of providing justice and the
necessary information on all the cases of hate crimes,
Observing delegations in a long term approach to establish stronger punishments,

cases if needed.

organization so it can work alongside CCPCJ.
 3. Recommends the surveillance established in detention and confinement
centers in order to monitor compliance with the guarantees of those
suspected of having perpetrated a hate crime and to assure a
well-functioning internal legal system and a non-proliferation enforcement
regime for crames.

4. Endorses that the organization created with help of other NGOs such as
Human Rights Watch, will be in charge of the process, llaw enforcement
members will treat everybody in an impartial way.
.
5. Reaffirms that those who infringe or wrongly follow the legal process of the
law with a rigid system or use that law with other purposes, will be applied
before established.

that the punishment has to be in a constructive way, only taking into account
the people in charge of enforcing the law in each country,
