The treaty creating the ICC has been signed, but implementation of the treaty awaits ratification by the signatory nations. No treaty goes into effect until the governments involved approve of the treaty through their individual constitutional processes. This
site is an NGO site that explains the court and tracks the ratification processes in the signatory nations.)
