United Nations "Aarhus Convention Treaty" Issues

Although the Government of the Republic of Ireland (Executive, Legislative, and Judicial) signed up for the United Nations Aarhus Convention Treaty on June 25th 1998, and ratified it on June 20th 2012, it STILL appears -- IN PRACTICE -- to be ENTIRELY UNWILLING to abide by the MOST BASIC PRINCIPLES of the United Nations Aarhus Convention Treaty.

Philomena,

Many thanks for this information, and all of your ongoing efforts.

I feel sure that many people all around the world will be deeply appreciative of what you are doing by way of trying to correct the way that all of the potential benefits of the "United Nations Aarhus Convention Treaty" have -- so far -- "failed to register" here in the Republic of Ireland.

I personally have long believed that, years ago, "Aarhus" should have been embedded -- "lock, stock, and barrel" -- as an "Amendment" into Bunreacht na hEireann (the Constitution of the Republic of Ireland), especially when it is the case that there is little (or possibly nothing) in Bunreacht na hEireann that relates directly to the important matter of the protection of the environment.

Best wishes,

William (Billy) Finnerty. ( https:// www.facebook.com /william.finnerty.3 )
