UN recommendation

Argymhelliad Cymreig clir

Dylai’r Llywodraeth:
(a) Adolygu cyfreithiau i nodi unrhyw fylchau neu wrthdaro â’r ICCPR. Hefyd, sicrhau bod holl hawliau’r ICCPR yn cael eu gorfodi’n llawn yn ei holl awdurdodaethau, yng ngoleuni sylw cyffredinol Rhif 31 (2004) y Pwyllgor ar rwymedigaethau cyfreithiol partïon Gwladwriaethau i’r ICCPR;
(b) Sicrhau bod cyfreithiau newydd a allai ddisodli Deddf Hawliau Dynol 1998 yn cryfhau’r amddiffyniad i hawliau dynol rhyngwladol yn ddomestig, gan gynnwys hawliau yn yr ICCPR;
(c) Gynyddu ymdrechion i gyflymu’r broses o fabwysiadu’r Mesur Hawliau ar gyfer Gogledd Iwerddon. Rhaid i’r Bil Hawliau hwn gynnwys yr holl hawliau yn yr ICCPR, gan gynnwys y rhai nad ydynt wedi’u derbyn eto gan y DU.


Original UN recommendation

Bearing in mind the Committee’s previous recommendations, the State party should:
(a) Undertake a comprehensive review of legislation with a view to identifying any potential gaps in provisions or provisions that conflict with the Covenant and, bearing in mind the Committee’s general comment No. 31 (2004) on the nature of the general legal obligation imposed on States parties to the Covenant, ensure that all Covenant rights are given full legal effect in all jurisdictions that fall under its authority or control or with regard to which it has formally undertaken to implement the Covenant;

(b) Ensure that any legislation that may be adopted in the future to replace or amend the Human Rights Act 1998 is aimed at strengthening the status of international human rights, including the provisions of the Covenant, in the domestic legal order, and provide effective protection of those rights across all jurisdictions;

(c) Increase its efforts to expedite the process of adopting the Bill of Rights for Northern Ireland and ensure that it incorporates all the rights enshrined in the Covenant.
