Our message is that, for the full realisation of this right, States must also pay attention to the implementation of other related United Nations standards and norms concerning children in conflict with the law, as recognised in the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child, the Beijing Rules, the Riyadh Guidelines and the Havana Rules.

• We want all governments to pay special attention to juvenile justice.
  
• We want all governments to undertake measures to ensure that the treatment of children in conflict with the law, particularly those deprived of their liberty, is in conformity with the applicable United Nations standards and norms, and taking into account their age, gender, social circumstances and developmental needs.
  
• With 2007 as our target date, we want all governments to develop and implement national action plans on juvenile justice that are aimed at:
  o Reducing the number of children deprived of their liberty;
  o Improving the conditions of arrested, detained or imprisoned children.
  
• To this end, national action plans should focus on legal safeguards to ensure that the arrest, detention or imprisonment of a child is in conformity with the law, and is used only as a measure of last resort and for the shortest appropriate period of time. Furthermore, they should concentrate on measures to promote the:
  o Collection and analysis of national data on children in conflict with the law, particularly those under arrest, in (pre-trial) detention or imprisonment;
  o Prevention of juvenile delinquency;
  o Use of diversion;
  o Use of alternatives to imprisonment and restorative justice; and
  o Improvement of the conditions of children deprived of their liberty.
