(1995-96) through the present. Only the Congressional documents that
are printed by the U.S. Government Printing Office (GPO) are included.
The "Catalog of Available Documents," which appears as the
first hit in every results list, lists by report number all of the
documents that are currently available via GPO Access.

Rights)

of the database, you will also find other full-text documents and factual
data (Reporting Status, Status of Ratification) concerning reporting
process and ratification of the treaties, as well as information relating
to the UN Committees. Well organized, can be sorted by country.

possible to search this site by country, subject, title, description
or keyword.
