1 After the delivery of this paper, at the ALI's annual meeting on May 17, 1985, the Chief Reporter proposed, and the Institute endorsed, adding a separate paragraph at the end of Comment a to section 702: This section (clauses ato f ) lists those rights as to which there is virtually universal agreement as of 1985 that they have become part of customary international law. This list is not necessarily complete, and is not closed. Human rights not listed in this section might also be found to have achieved that status of customary international law or might achieve that status in the future.

2 At the ALI's annual meeting mentioned supranote 1, the Chief Reporter agreed to add to the end of Comment 1 the following: “A rule need not be a peremptory norm (jus cogens)however, to be part of the customary international law of human rights.”
