§ Lord Lester of Herne Hillasked Her Majesty's Government:
Further to Baroness Chalker of Wallasey's Written Answers of 1 March (WA 97), 20 March (WA 55) and 5 April (WA 18), why the decision not to renew the acceptance of the right of individual petition in respect of the British Virgin Islands and the Cayman Islands under Article 25 of the European Convention on Human Rights was not notified to the UN Human Rights Committee in the UK's Second or Third Periodic Reports.
§ Lord InglewoodThe question of whether to include this information in the text of the Second and Third Periodic Reports does not appear to have been considered during their preparation. This information was brought to the attention of the Human Rights Committee in the course of the presentation to the Committee of the United Kingdom's Third Periodic Report under the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights in 1991.
