International Criminal Court (EDM548)

International Criminal Court

EDM number 548 in 1996-97, proposed by David Atkinson on 18/02/1997.

That this House notes that there is at present, no permanent and effective mechanism which allows those individuals violating international humanitarian law to be made accountable for their crimes; believes that the only way to maintain international peace is to focus the rule of law on individual lawbreakers and make international law more effective through the establishment of a permanent international criminal court; and strongly urges Her Majesty's Government to support the Preparatory Committee on the Establishment of an International Criminal Court created by the United Nations General Assembly in December 1995.

This motion has been signed by a total of 38 MPs.
