	The European Convention on Human Rights
		Human Rights Bill (as introduced in the House of Lords on 23 October 1997) now passing through Parliament and which is likely to come into force sometime in 1999 or perhaps 2000.
		The Council convened in 1948, and the Convention was drafted in 1949.
		At the same time, the potential for invocation of the Convention is tremendous, especially as the adjudicative agencies adopt a teleological and dynamic approach in order to realise the fundamental objects and purposes of the Convention in a changing world, namely the protection of individual human rights and the promotion of pluralistic democracy.

	EUROPA - GLOSSARY
		The European Convention on Human Rights, signed in Rome under the aegis of the Council of Europe on 4 November 1950, established an unprecedented system of international protection for human rights, offering individuals the possibility of applying to the courts for the enforcement of their rights.
		However, in an opinion given on 28 March 1996, the Court of Justice of the European Union stated that the European Communities could not accede to the Convention because the EC Treaty did not provide any powers to lay down rules or to conclude international agreements on human rights.
		The Treaty of Amsterdam nevertheless calls for respect for the fundamental rights guaranteed by the Convention, while formalising the judgments of the Court of Justice on the matter.
