Consideration is currently being given to the nomination of a new Irish Member to the Council of Europe Committee for the Prevention of Torture and Inhuman or Degrading Treatment or Punishment (CPT). I do not have a date as yet but three individuals will be selected as the Irish nominees in line with the procedures for nomination to the CPT. It will then be a matter for the Council of Europe to decide which nominee should be appointed.
