Proceeding contribution from David Burrowes (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Monday, 20 February 2017. It occurred during Debate on bill on Cultural Property (Armed Conflicts) Bill [Lords].


Cultural Property (Armed Conflicts) Bill [Lords]

My right hon. and learned Friend is dealing with his fourth point, but I wonder whether one of his subsequent points deals with international best practice in relation to United Nations resolutions, including paragraph 7 of Security Council resolution 1483 of 22 May 2003 or Security Council resolution 2199 of 2015, which focus on the same provision of “reasonable suspicion” that is in the Bill, which are obviously binding on all UN members and which are also part of the international legal architecture of our accession to The Hague convention.
