Rishi Sunak has once again been dropping hints about leaving the European Convention on Human Rights. This is not credible, says Dr David McGrogan: such a feat would require a Government far more serious than this one.

Shannon Renditions - Walk to Highlight new Report

category clare | rights, freedoms and repression | event notice author Friday June 26, 2009 14:24author by John Lannon Report this post to the editors

Members of Amnesty International, Shannonwatch and others will gather at Shannon Town Centre on Saturday 27th at 2pm to mark the launch of a new Amnesty report outlining how CIA planes have been using Shannon Airport. Dressed in orange to represent the rendition cases that can be directly tied to Shannon, they will walk towards the airport.

The Amnesty report identifies key priorities to protect against renditions. These are:

- proactive identification of aircraft and operators that have used Irish territory for renditions. Currently data is collected by organisations like Shannonwatch and Amnesty International, or by journalists.

- Irish authorities cannot identify foreign civilian aircraft that may be engaged in rendition. Amnesty say that current legislation does not go far enough and must be tightened up.

- a system requiring detailed information on passengers and flight plan from all aircraft operators travelling through Irish airspace.
