Cluster Munitions and Anti-Personnel Mines Bill 2008: Committee and Remaining Stages
12:00 pm
Maurice Cummins (Fine Gael)
I empathise with much of Senator Norris's statements. The Austrian and Belgian situations are interesting. Were we to adopt a similar resolution, would we delay our ratification of the convention? Neither Senator Norris nor anyone else would want or suggest that, since it makes sense that people apply the same standards in legislation. I would welcome the Minister of State's comments in this regard.
