International legal questions

In 2014, the International Law Commission continued to examine topics relating to the progressive development and codification of international law. It adopted a set of 31 draft articles on the expulsion of aliens, thus concluding its work on the topic. It also adopted a set of 21 draft articles on protection of persons in the event of disasters; provisionally adopted five draft conclusions on the identification of subsequent agreements and subsequent practice in relation to the interpretation of treaties, and two draft articles on immunity of State officials from foreign criminal jurisdiction; and took note of eight draft conclusions on identification of customary international law, provisionally adopted by its drafting committee. The Commission further adopted the final report on the obligation to extradite or prosecute (aut dedere aut judicare) and concluded its consideration of the topic; included in its programme of work the topic of crimes against humanity, and reconstituted its study group on the most-favoured-nation clause, which began consideration of its final report. In December, the General Assembly welcomed the adoption of the draft articles on the expulsion of aliens and the conclusion of the Commission’s work on the topic.
