Summary/Abstract: The article examines the path and parliamentary debates on the ratification of the Convention for the Protection of Human Rights and Fundamental Freedoms in 1992 in the XXXVI National Assembly. Attention is paid to the initial texts submitted to the government bills; the proposals for amendments and supplements made by the members of the National Assembly; as well as the final texts adopted by the parliament. Emphasis was placed on the positions of the political forces represented in the Assembly and the fact that both the ruling party and the opposition are in favour of the adoption of the Convention; which is why the vote is entirely positive for the proposed government laws.
