Effective justice – Common conditions for transferring criminal proceedings between EU countries

The EU-Commission announces an upcoming adoption on common conditions for transferring criminal proceedings between EU countries. This initiative seeks to put in place common rules for transferring criminal proceedings between EU countries. By establishing common conditions under which criminal proceedings initiated in one EU country may be transferred to another, the Commission aims to make criminal proceedings more efficient and improve the administration of justice in the EU. In case of an adoption it will be interesting to see how expert evidence would be considered.
