HC Deb 29 April 2002 vol 384 c578W
Sandra Gidley

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs if he will list the women's organisations which have been consulted over proposed legislation by her Department during(a) 2000–01 and (b) 2000–02 sessions; and if their responses have been published. [44387]

Mr. Bradshaw

The FCO consulted widely on the draft International Criminal Court Bill in 2000. Among others, the consultation document was sent to the Coalition for an ICC (which includes the Women's Caucus for Gender Issues and Sisterhood International) and the Women's International League for Peace and Freedom. There were no other cases in the years in question when women's organisations were consulted.
