European Convention on Human Rights Bill 2001: Committee Stage.
10:30 am
Brendan Ryan (Labour)
I move amendment No. 6:
In page 4, before section 2, to insert the following new section:
"2.–The Convention provisions shall be part of the law of the State.".
This amendment is self-explanatory. It is a question of whether the convention is part of the law of the State and the amendment moves that it should be.
