SUBCOMMITTEE ON THE PROMOTION AND PROTECTION OF HUMAN RIGHTS
56th session
26 July – 13 August 2004
[Excerpt from the statement]
Given that all of the procedures mentioned above do not yet exist or only partially cover issues raised by the activities of transnational corporations, it would be wise to establish a specific mechanism within ECOSOC, such as a committee or working group, which would be responsible for implementing the draft standards or, as some observers suggest, creating an International Criminal Court for transnational corporations.
