General Comments and other normative interpretations
Consider the General Comments of International Treaty Bodies
Many international conventions establish a committee to monitor and advise on the implementation of its provisions. To this end, committees frequently make General Comments on particular provisions as guidance as to how the provision in question should be implemented. General Comments are authoritative interpretations of binding obligations, and they serve to elucidate the obligations of the State.
