YOUR TELNO 1782: IRO SUB-GROUP: HUMAN RIGHTS
1. WE HAVE NO COMMENTS ON THE DRAFT PAPERS ON THE NINE REMAINING HUMAN RIGHTS TREATIES.
2. WE HAVE BEEN UNABLE TO FIND ANY UN DOCUMENTS CONFIRMING ACCESSION AS SUCH, HOWEVER WE ARE FAXING TO MISS FOAKES (INTERNATIONAL LAW DIVISION) AN EXTRACT FROM THE UN PUBLICATION *MULTILATERAL TREATIES DEPOSITED WITH THE SECRETARY-GENERAL'. RELATING TO THE 1921 CONVENTION. PLEASE LET US KNOW IF THIS IS NOT SUFFICIENT AS WE WOULD THEN NEED TO CONTACT THE UN TO SEE IF THEY HAVE ANYTHING.
3. WE LOOK FORWARD TO RECEIVING YOUR THOUGHTS ON THE RESERVATIONS. IT DOES LOOK AT FIRST SIGHT AS IF MANY OF THEM ARE NO LONGER NECESSARY, AND SOME, EG ON CIVIL SERVICE SALARIES FOR WOMEN WOULD APPEAR TO BE INCONSISTENT WITH THE BILL OF
RIGHTS.
