Pact would protect the disabled

http://www.latimes.com/news/nationworld/world/la-fg-

briefs31.3mar31,1,5120066.story

More than 80 countries signed a United Nations convention protecting

the rights of the world's 650 million disabled people. The convention

will come into force 30 days after ratification by 20 nations, a

milestone expected in 2008 or 2009.

The measure requires ratifying nations to adopt laws banning

discrimination on the basis of any form of disability, including

blindness and mental illness.
