Attorney-General on the state of international instruments which have been ratified by our Government. I am doing this because when I made an effort to get these details from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, I was told that they only have half of the instruments and the other half is with the Attorney-General who told me the same thing. The Ministerial Statement I am seeking should address the following issues:- 1. The list of all international instruments that have been ratified by our Government; 2. The list of international instruments which have been ratified and also domesticated by our Parliament; and, 3. The action the hon. Attorney-General will take to ensure that Parliament’s approval is sought and obtained before the Government commits our country to the international instruments."}
