uin	HL5858
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 09/03/2018 answer text <p>The Government is proud to be at the forefront of global efforts to bring Daesh to justice. In 2017, the UN Security Council unanimously adopted the UK-drafted United Nations Security Council Resolution (UNSCR) 2379, which requests the Secretary General to establish an Investigative Team to gather evidence of Daesh crimes, beginning in Iraq. Evidence gathered by that team can support later prosecutions.</p><p>In many cases, prosecutions for any Daesh crimes will be best left to national authorities. Indeed, under UNSCR 2379, Iraq remains the 'primary intended recipient' for the evidence collected by the team. However, it is too early at this stage – and not for the UK alone – to determine what particular judicial mechanism will be appropriate in the future. The appropriate process will depend on the individual circumstances.</p> answering member printed Lord Ahmad of Wimbledon question first answered 09/03/2018 11:24:45 answering member 4210 label Biography information for Lord Ahmad of Wimbledon
