That this House recognises the importance of bringing all those who commit grave violations of human rights and humanitarian law to justice; welcomes the support that Her Majesty's Government has given to the International Criminal Tribunal for the Former Yugoslavia; recognises the need to ensure that all relevant intelligence information gathered by NATO is made available to the ICTY, and that the ICTY received adequate resources to enable it to carry out its work of investigations and prosecutions connected with events in Kosovo; further recognises that the events in Kosovo underline the urgent need for a permanent court to prosecute those who commit genocide, crimes against humanity and war crimes; and calls on Her Majesty's Government to bring forward legislation in the next Queen's Speech to enable the UK to ratify the Statute for an International Criminal Court.
