With regard to the legal situation of persons having dual or multiple nationality, the Special Rapporteur had stated, in his third report, that it was not desirable to deal with the issue in connection with draft article 4, since the rule prohibiting the expulsion of nationals applied to any State of which a person was a national.
D'autres membres estimaient que la Commission devait s'atteler à l'élaboration de projets d'articles sur l'expulsion des binationaux et des plurinationaux, ainsi que sur la dénationalisation en tant qu'éventuel préalable à une expulsion.
