DECLARATION OF JUDGE BHANDARI
Timing of declarations of intervention — Article 63 of the Statute of the Court and Article 82 of Rules of Court — No distinction between stages of proceedings — Significance of words “as soon as possible” — Practical and procedural considerations.
1. I agree with the Court’s Order and reasoning. I make this declaration only to add an additional point concerning the timing and practical effects of interventions in a case such as this one.
