Congruence between the ECRML and the Framework Convention for the Protection of National Minorities as well as the congruence between national legislation and the provisions of the ECRML are presented in table formats for easy review of the existing legislation to support the proposals for instruments of ratifications. With this Handbook, it is hoped that the respective states, the civil society organizations and other stakeholders will use it as a guide to address the ratification possibilities as an achieveable goal set out of practical convenience. We hope that it will be used as a tool and will add new momentum to the ECRML ratification process.
