Concluding Comments on CEDAW SEAP Countries
An important part of any law is its application to specific cases. This constitutes the body of knowledge that is derived from application of the law to real situations. Each application is a 'precedent' that contributes to the meaning of a particular provision of the law, thereby constructing the law.
Also known as Concluding Observations, Concluding Comments are recommendations issued by the Committee following the review of reports by States Parties. The CEDAW Committee comments on the progress made by the State Party in implementing its obligations under the treaty and make recommendations for improvement. These are application of CEDAW to the context of different countries, equivalent of "legal precedent." They also reflect the assessment of state performance by the Committee.
