"The UNGPs Third Pillar in the Italian Action Plan: an assessment of the existing NAPs and of the barriers to the Italian judicial system", Jan 2016

The present contribution to the Italian Action Plan aims at giving a comprehensive overview of the right of access to judicial remedy for victims of business-related human rights abuses. This document is divided in two sections. The first part will analyse the measures related to the Third Pillar included in the National Action Plans adopted so far. The second part will focus on the main categories of existing barriers to Italian judicial remedies and will analyze the possible solutions to overcome them by providing recommendations for feasible long and/or short-term legislative reforms.
