Facilitating UNCRPD Compliance through Person-centred Care Planning and Improved Regulation

《联合国残疾人权利公约》是一项具有约束力的人权文书，是联合国与残疾人之间数十年工作的成果。它的目的是改变对残疾人的态度和方法。《残疾人权利公约》于2009年获得批准，由残疾人为残疾人制定，可以说具有事实上的合法性。然而，《残疾人权利公约》所规定的权利与其实施之间似乎存在漏洞。联合国委员会的报告显示，英国继续违反人权原则。特别是，对自主和自我指导的辅助决策(第12条)、独立生活和融入社区(第19条)以及与保健同等的知情同意(第25条和第17条)表示关切。CRPD要求在实践中进行地震变化。因此，实际指导是关键。正如联合国特别报告员最近指出的，“我们需要向政策制定者提供解决方案”。

The UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (CRPD) is a binding human rights instrument and culmination of decades of work between the United Nations and persons with disabilities. It aims to change attitudes and approaches to persons with disabilities. Ratified in 2009 and created by disabled people for disabled people, it arguably carries an ipso facto level of legitimacy.Nevertheless, there appears to be a lacuna between the rights enshrined in the CRPD and its implementation. UN Committee reports reveal continued UK non-compliance with human rights principles. In particular, there are concerns regarding autonomous and self-directed supported decision-making (Article 12), independent living and being included in the community (Article 19) and informed consent on a par with health care (Articles 25 and 17). The CRPD demands seismic changes in practice. Consequently, practical guidance is pivotal. As recently identified by the UN Special Rapporteur, 'we need to offer policy makers solutions'.
