Resolution

A resolution is an official document successfully passed after the voting procedure. It is the result of a committe's/council's proceedings and it contains the proposal solutions in order to aim a specific issue.
Preambulatory Clauses
Pre-ambulatory clauses are similar to an overview of the problem at hand and past actions taken, and may stress particular aspects of a problem which the sponsors of the resolution think should be addressed in the operative clauses. Pre-ambulatory clauses may not be amended except by suspension of the rules or withdrawal and reintroduction of a resolution, and, therefore, ought to be chosen carefully.

The International Law Committee,

A. Recognizing that the fundamental causes of migration are poverty and underdevelopment, demographic and economic imbalances, overpopulation, environmental factors, poor governance, uneven impact of globalization, family reuninification, trade liberalization and humanitarian disasters.


B.  Taking into consideration that illegal immigration is wrong, and a primary goal of a comprehensive immigration reform must be to dramatically curtail future illegal immigration.

C. Contemplating the European Human Rights Convention and the Human Rights Act of 1998 that makes it unlawful for any public body to act in a way which is incompatible with the Convention, unless the wording of an Act of Parliament means they have no other choice.


D. Bearing in mind the 1951 Geneva Convention which consolidates previous international instruments relating to refugees and provides the most comprehensive codification of their rights yet attempted on the international level and its 1964 Protocol.

  1. Recommends, to further strengthen the international cooperation between States, international organizations and agencies, regional organizations and arrangements and the United Nations, in order to 1.     deport or adsorb and help illegal immigrants in all its forms and manifestations, wherever and by whomsoever committed.
  2. Reminds that the progress should also be achieved in deterring illegal inflows by means of various agreements with the governments of the source and transit countries to facilitate the removal of illegal immigrants.
  3. Considers that efforts should be made to discourage potential illegal immigrants from leaving their country of origin by means of advertising campaigns and agreements with the authorities of the source countries to prevent their citizens from exiting without authorization to enter their country of destination.
  4. Further recommends that the governments should give money to illegal immigrants for their repatriation and resettlement to their home country.
  5. Suggests the creation of a triple-ringed security for all countries fingerprint visas, ID cards for foreign nationals,
    That lock people to one identity and high tech electronic border controls that the check people against police, immigration and customs watch-lists.
  6. Calls upon all States to promote and protect affectively the human rights and fundamental freedoms of all migrants by enacting appropriate legislation towards this goal.
  7.  Urges all States to adopt effective measures to prevent and punish any form of illegal deprivation of liberty of migrants by individuals or groups. 
  8. Proposes the creation of a biometric-based employer verification system with tough enforcement and auditing in order to significantly diminish the job magnet that attracts illegal immigrants to the States and provide certainty and simplicity for employers.
  9. Recommends that there be a distinction between asylum seekers and illegal immigrants. That letter being examined on a case by case basis.
