The Future of Human Rights Law Reform

Questions about how or whether to reform human rights law continues to be a source of political and legal controversy. The Government has now withdrawn the Bill of Rights Bill, which was to have replaced the Human Rights Act 1998. It remains to be seen whether new legislation will be brought forward in its place, and what shape such legislation will take, including in relation to difficult questions about immigration and asylum. Possible changes to domestic human rights law are connected also to the merits of membership of the European Convention on Human Rights, which remain hotly disputed, not least in light of the European Court of Human Rights’s recent intervention in relation to deportation of asylum seekers to Rwanda. This panel event will discuss the case for human rights law reform and the obstacles to and practicalities of reform, taking into account domestic legislation, international law, and related parliamentary dynamics. Speakers Include: Rt Hon Brandon Lewis CBE MP, Secretary of State for Justice, Lord High Chancellor Simon Murray, Barrister Rt Hon Lord Faulks KC, Chairman, Independent Press Standards Organisation Richard Ekins, Head of Judicial Power Project, Policy Exchange Lord Godson, Director, Policy Exchange (Chair)
