Abstract

Even though the Committee of Ministers of the Council of Europe has primary responsibility to supervise the execution of the judgments of the European Court of Human Rights, by virtue of Article 46(2) of the European Convention on Human Rights, the Parliamentary Assembly has increasingly contributed to the process of implementation of the Strasbourg Court's judgments. Composed of national parliamentarians, the Assembly can put pressure on States parties to the Convention to help ensure – through appropriate national parliamentary oversight procedures and mechanisms – rapid and complete implementation of Strasbourg Court judgments. This important parliamentary dimension should be taken into account when the 2010 Interlaken Declaration and Action Plan are implemented.
