Committee of the Council of Europe

CAHDI, formally the Committee of Legal Advisers on Public International Law, is a committee of the Council of Europe.

It is an intergovernmental committee bringing together the legal advisers of the 47 member states of the council as well as those of observer states and organisations.

CAHDI meets twice a year.

The committee has examined a number of issues, including state succession and questions of recognition, state immunity and developments regarding the international criminal tribunals and the International Criminal Court.

History
