This study explores the variety of ways in which states have provided protection from removal for individuals falling outside the scope of the 1951 Convention and/or its 1967 Protocol. The aim is to inform UNHCR’s recommendations on the principles to be articulated in the proposed ExCom conclusion. From the outset, the study recognises that ‘complementary protection’ is not a term of art defined in any international instrument, rather a phrase which has emerged over the last decade to describe an increasingly-apparent phenomenon in industrialised countries of relief from removal/deportation being granted to asylum seekers who have failed in their asylum claim.

The following discussion paper sets out the issues at stake and outlines a series of weaknesses in the way violations of housing, land and property rights in post-conflict societies have so far been responded to by the international community. The author also makes a number of proposals on how these rights can more effectively and comprehensively be addressed by institutionalizing the operational response within the United Nations system.
