Genocide Determination Bill [HL]

[As Introduced]
A
BILL
to

This bill would allow the UK Parliament to officially determine and declare whether genocide has taken place in particular events or countries. Currently, only international courts can make these formal determinations, so the bill would give Parliament new powers in this sensitive area of international justice.

Presented by Lord Alton of Liverpool.
