Origin - 2014 - First part-session

In the draft resolution, replace paragraph 18 with the following paragraph:

"The Assembly resolves to follow closely the implementation of the above proposals. It recalls its Resolution 1597 (2007) and Recommendation 1824 (2007) on United Nations Security Council and European Union blacklists. And further resolves that if within a reasonable period of time the competent authorities have failed to make any or any adequate response to this draft Resolution the Assembly should recommend to member states of the Council of Europe to follow as a last resort the example of the US in adopting targeted sanctions against individuals (visa bans and freezing of accounts) having first given those named individuals the opportunity to make appropriate representations in their defence."
