Plevan (212) 382-6700 Fax: (212) 768-8116 [email protected] www.abcny.org January 25, 2005 Dear Sir/Madam: Please find attached commentary on the Inquiries Bill, currently before the House of Lords. The Association of the Bar of the City of New York (the “Association”) is an independent non- governmental organization of more than 23,000 lawyers, judges, law professors, and government officials. Founded in 1870, the Association has a long history of dedication to human rights, notably through its Committee on International Human Rights, which investigates and reports on human rights conditions around the world. Among many other topics, the Committee has recently published reports on national security legislation in Hong Kong and human rights standards applicable to the United States’ interrogation of detainees. The Committee has been monitoring adherence to human rights standards in Northern Ireland for the past 18 years. During this time, the Committee has sponsored three missions to Northern Ireland, covering reform of the criminal justice system, use of emergency laws, and the status of investigations into past crimes, including in particular the murders of solicitors Rosemary Nelson and Patrick Finucane. The Committee’s interest in the Inquiry Bill stems from our belief that it could have devastating consequences for the Finucane inquiry, as well as other inquiries into human rights cases from Northern Ireland. Beyond these cases, we believe the Bill, if passed into law, would concentrate power in the executive in a problematic way and jeopardize the integrity of investigations into matters of public concern.

THE NEW YORK EXPERIENCE by H. H. A. CooPER* I. The first thing I would like to say is something about the general socio-historical aspect of the drug problem, an aspect touched upon by several of the speakers and touched upon in different ways. As an historian, I find one variable of this drug problem very striking. I was reminded of this particularly a couple of weeks ago when I was standing on the battlefield of Gettysburg. I was standing on Little Round Top and I realized at that moment how much the actions, the behavior and the thoughts of a very few men had changed the course of Ameri- can history. If somebody had contemplated doing something dif- ferently, the whole setting in which we find ourselves today might well have been different. We are dealing, ladies and gentle- men, with human beings.
