Bill Goodwin And The European Court Of Human Rights
EDM number 866 in 1995-96, proposed by Ann Clwyd on 10/05/1996.
That this House congratulates journalist William Goodwin on the recent ruling in the European Court of Human Rights which upheld his appeal against the British courts' refusal to acknowledge that he should be entitled to protect professional sources from disclosure; notes that the UK has been found guilty of 38 human rights violations, a worse record than any other nation in the European Union; questions the motivation of the Government in aiming to curb the power of the European Court of Human Rights after a series of embarrassing rulings against the UK; and believes the European Court is continuing to ensure the protection of human rights throughout the EU and elsewhere.
This motion has been signed by a total of 30 MPs.
