The report by Boriss Cilevics (Latvia, SOC) dealing with nationality-related issues, was adopted on 2 October 2013 by the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe (PACE) Legal Affairs Committee. The report notes that the trend in several Council of Europe member states in recent years has been to make it more difficult to acquire nationality, although the right to a nationality is enshrined in several international legal instruments, including the European Convention on Nationality, which only 20 member states have ratified.
