Commonwealth Law Conference: Equality before the law
This meeting has taken place in South Africa. That is about the most obvious, and to the extent that anything obvious is daft, the daftest observation in this conference. But I want to emphasise the point from the outset. First, however, hasn't it been a triumphant Conference? The triumph has had many different facets. We can pause to admire the hard work and wise decision-making of the organisers, the high quality of the speakers, the immense kindness of those who looked after us, the pleasantness of the facilities. The programme has been wonderful and we have been spoilt for choice about the different sessions to attend. All this should be acknowledged.A HTML version of this speech is not available click here or view below the pdf version :Speech
