Post-monitoring dialogue with Turkey
Committee on the Honouring of Obligations and Commitments by Member States of the Council of Europe (Monitoring Committee)
In the draft resolution, replace paragraph 11.5 with the following paragraph:
"The Assembly welcomes the adoption on 11 April 2013 of the ‘fourth package of judicial reforms’. The amendments of, in particular, the Criminal Code and the anti-terrorism legislation should help to bring Turkish legislation into line with the case-law of the European Court of Human Rights, as requested. They should also help to clarify the distinction between freedom of expression and terrorist propaganda, as expected. The Assembly renews its request for Article 301 of the Criminal Code to be repealed."
