Article 32 Waiver of privileges, immunities and facilities of members of subsidiary bodies and of experts for the Assembly, including its Bureau and subsidiary bodies, provided for in articles 23 and 28, paragraph 6

Privileges, immunities and facilities provided for in articles 23 and 28, paragraph 6 of this Agreement are accorded to the members of subsidiary bodies and to experts, respectively, not for the personal benefit of the individuals themselves, but in order to safeguard the independent performance of their functions in connection with the work of the Assembly, including its Bureau and subsidiary bodies, and the Court. Consequently, the President of the Assembly not only has the right but is under a duty to waive the privileges, immunities and facilities of the members of subsidiary bodies or of experts in any case where, in the opinion of the President of the Assembly, they would impede the course of justice and can be waived without prejudice to the purpose for which they are accorded.
