Clause 2 - Request for arrest and surrender
International Criminal Court Bill [Lords]

Mr Edward Garnier (Harborough, Conservative)
I am interested in the Solicitor-General's intervention and I have two points to make. First, two transatlantic legal academics—I think that one was from the United States and the other was Canadian—issued a complaint about NATO's bombing of the television station. Secondly, the prosecutor, far from reaching a conclusion adverse to those complaints, has left the matter where it fell: she has not investigated the complaints to their conclusion. The issue is still live and has not been finally resolved. If the prosecutor has reached a final conclusion, that is news to me. Perhaps the Solicitor-General can provide enlightenment.
