European Convention on Human Rights Bill 2001: Second Stage.

 

Article 13 of the convention states there should be a right to an effective remedy. This is not provided for in the Bill. Article 34 states individual applications are possible but that is not being helped either. Article 41 of the convention states people should get "just satisfaction". In Schedule 2 there is provision for the right to education but I do not see where there will be a remedy for children in that regard under this legislation.
