CRC Article = 50
Note:
The rules of international treaty law concerning the amendment or modification of treaties are set forth in Articles 39 to 41 of the Vienna Convention on the Law of Treaties (1969). These rules apply unless the treaty itself contains different provisions. The provisions of the CRC concerning amendments are set forth in Article 50 of the CRC, which deals with the procedure by which States Parties can propose and adopt amendments to the CRC, and with the binding effect of amendments accepted by two-thirds majority of States Parties.
