Description

LEGAL OPINION:THE Rio+20 conference may have failed to deliver on expectations, but it is heartening to see that Ireland has, at last, ratified the Aarhus convention which it signed in 1998. It is immensely frustrating for all those concerned with strengthening environmental democracy and access to justice that there has been such a long delay in bringing about ratification of this important environmental treaty.
