"Madam President, It was a deplorable feature of the document to which Mrs Gebhardt's report responded that, as I said in the explanatory statement, Parliament commented in detail on the protection of individual rights, which did not feature at all in the Council text. It seems to me that every step that we take and justifiably take in this direction must be, at the same time, one which recognises in the highest degree protection of the rights of the defence and of the rights of persons accused of crime in all parts of the Union. This should not become a way of achieving a lowest common factor of protection. It must be the case that at all points people involved in criminal processes achieve the highest level of respect for their rights of defence.
May I remark that the provision on national representatives allows for substitutes? I hope that the United Kingdom in appointing persons will take note of the fact there are two distinct systems of criminal justice in the UK."@en1
