Clause 51 - Genocide, crimes against humanity and war crimes
International Criminal Court Bill [Lords]
3:45 pm
Mr Crispin Blunt (Reigate, Conservative)
Clause 45(4) of the draft International Criminal Court Bill states that
``This section applies —
(a) to acts done in England, Wales or Northern Ireland, and
(b) to acts done outside the United Kingdom by United Kingdom nationals or persons subject to UK service jurisdiction.''
However, clause 46(1) states that
``This section applies to any offence under section 45 (genocide, crime against humanity or war crime).''
As far as I understand it, there is no limitation in that.
