" The Assembly,
" Noting that, according to the Second Report (para. 53) and the Supplementary Report (para. 31) of the Committee of Ministers, the draft of the Protocol which it is proposed to add to the Convention for the Protection of Human Rights and Fundamental Freedoms has given rise to differences of opinion within the Committee, and that it has been referred to the Government Experts with the request that they draw up a final text to be immediately submitted for signature by the Ambassadors of the Member States in Paris,
" Observes that the definitions of the right to own property and the freedom of education, which are the purport of this Protocol, are essentially matters of a political character, and that they were the subject, in 1949 and 1950, of far-reaching discussions within the Assembly and its Committee on Legal and Administrative Questions, which finally resulted in the voting of the compromise text included in Recommendation 47 of August, 1950,
"Requests, consequently, that, should the Government Experts make any alterations in the text recommended by the Assembly, the Protocol incorporating them should not be submitted for signature sto the Member States until and unless the Consultative Assembly has had an opportunity of giving its opinion upon the proposed alterations."
