GA Resolution: Repeal "Consular Rights"

A resolution to repeal previously passed legislation

Category: Repeal
Resolution: GA#164
Proposed by: Christian Democrats

Description: WA General Assembly Resolution #164: Consular Rights (Category: Human Rights; Strength: Mild) shall be struck out and rendered null and void.

Argument: The General Assembly,

Applauding Resolution 164 for its intent of advancing legal protection of persons accused or convicted of crimes in foreign nations, however,

Recognizing that the resolution is too broad and may threaten the national security of some member states by affording many foreign prisoners -- including persons who may have been convicted of espionage or terrorism -- private meetings with representatives of their home nations,

Concerned that a convicted spy, during such an unmonitored meeting, could pass on to his home nation classified information that he obtained while spying on the nation wherein he's currently imprisoned,

Further concerned that convicted state-sponsored terrorists could confer privately with representatives from their home nations about possible means of escape or conversion of other prisoners to radicalism,

Expressing its general concern that Resolution 164, while laudable, is vague and may have many other unintended consequences,

Repeals Resolution 164, Consular Rights.

I'm getting sick and tired of this whole cycle of legislate and repeal.

With that gripe said, I think this is a valid concern. I don't believe I took part in the discussion for the original legislation so I've only got myself to blame there.

Overall, I don't much care for the original legislation, and I think this argument seems valid. The difficulty is that I don't believe a suitable replacement can exist because of the argument stated above.

So I'm going to vote for the repeal.
