Off the top of my head, I don't know of another country that has an office or a body like what we're describing. I'm not saying that it doesn't exist. I'm not familiar with it. Maybe others are.
We totally agree that there is need for work at the multilateral level as well. A whole variety of international legal issues that arise in these cases are problematic. International law is by no means clear enough when it comes to issues around multiple nationalities, for instance, which very often arise in these kinds of cases. Sometimes it's put forward as more of an imagined obstacle than it is, but there are instances where dual nationality is a real concern. When you are dealing with someone with dual nationality, international law isn't clear enough with respect to the obligations and duties that arise in the consular area. That's sort of a bigger and longer-term strategy, I think.
Obviously, revisiting issues around consular relations at the international level and revising and amending international treaties is long-term and sometimes quite contentious work, but we certainly agree that there is a need on that level as well.
