Committee on Social Affairs, Health and Sustainable Development

Origin - 2013 - Second part-session

In the draft recommendation, paragraph 2, after the words "fundamental rights" insert the following words:

", including socio-economic rights".

Explanatory note

The amendment reiterates what the Assembly has stressed on multiple occasions and in particular during its debates on the state of human rights in Europe: we deem human rights indivisible, interdependent and complementary; we consider that the notion of fundamental rights covers not only civil and political rights, but also socio-economic rights.
