Proceeding contribution from Baroness Walmsley (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 4 July 2006. It occurred during Debates on delegated legislation on Law Reform (Miscellaneous Provisions) (Northern Ireland) Order 2006.
Law Reform (Miscellaneous Provisions) (Northern Ireland) Order 2006
I accept that Parliament voted for this compromise—the Minister accepts that it is a compromise—but will the Government stop claiming that it now makes us compliant with the European Convention on the Rights of the Child? It is for the Council of Europe and the committee that polices the convention, not for the Government, to decide whether the Government comply. The Government may think that they comply, but they cannot really claim that they do until that claim is endorsed by those organisations.
