Unchr Death Penalty Resolution

EDM number 534 in 1999-00, proposed by Kevin McNamara on 15/03/2000.

That this House supports the universal abolition of the death penalty; welcomes the support given by Her Majesty's Government to a strongly-worded resolution on the question of the death penalty at the 1999 UN Commission on Human Rights; believes that a similar resolution should be tabled this year urging all states to abolish the death penalty and fully comply with international law pending abolition; recognises the importance of the Commission as the key UN body on human rights; and calls on the Government to support a strongly-worded resolution, oppose any attempts to weaken the resolution and actively lobby other governments at this year's Commission to do the same.

This motion has been signed by a total of 117 MPs, 1 of these signatures have been withdrawn.
