Annotation: 
The UN Human Rights Committee, in its concluding observations on the country report for the Republic of San Marino, recognizes the State party's adoption of a law entitled "Prevention and Repression of Violence against Women and Gender Violence", which provides a framework for the State to provide protection to victims and their families, and through criminal, civil and administrative judicial remedies, including free legal assistance for these matters. It recommends that corresponding education and training programs, including training for police in effectively dealing with complaints of domestic violence, accompany the developments in law.
