Report on the activities of the Independent Redress Mechanism
Summary
The Independent Redress Mechanism (IRM) report for early 2019 details its operational status, including the adoption of new Procedures and Guidelines and the development of a Case Management System. While no formal complaints or reconsideration requests were received during the period, the IRM conducted a preliminary inquiry into a project in Peru regarding potential mis-categorization and lack of free, prior, informed consent. The IRM also focused on capacity building for direct access entities and outreach activities in Chile, Côte d'Ivoire, and China.
Key insights
- The IRM is fully operational and capable of processing complaints from affected persons and requests from developing countries for the reconsideration of funding decisions, though it received no such requests or complaints between 1 January 2019 and 31 May 2019.
- The IRM conducted a preliminary inquiry into project number FP001 in Peru concerning potential mis-categorization and a lack of free, prior, informed consent (FPIC). Although prima facie evidence existed to initiate a formal investigation, the IRM deferred this action based on a 1 May 2019 undertaking by the Secretariat to implement remedial actions, with a final decision pending a review of progress on 31 December 2019.
