"The fact that the EU is to define common minimum standards governing basic common procedural rights for suspects and defendants in criminal proceedings may appear laudable. The proposal is, however, part and parcel of setting up a common criminal justice system. Guarantees of these minimum rights already exist in the European Convention on Human Rights and Fundamental Freedoms, signed by all the Member States.
It is doubtful whether the principle of subsidiarity has been observed and whether there is any legal basis in the Treaty for harmonising the Member States’ criminal justice systems. Legal uncertainty will, moreover, arise as to whether the European Court of Human Rights or the Court of Justice of the European Communities has the preferential right of interpretation.
The June List is therefore voting against the proposal."@en1
