As the report states, the 1999 Tampere European Council endorsed the principle of mutual recognition as ‘the cornerstone of judicial cooperation in both civil and criminal matters within the Union’.
A year later the Council approved a programme of measures focusing on this principle, so as to adapt the mechanisms of mutual recognition of final sentences and extend the application of the principle of transferring sentenced persons to cover persons resident in a Member State.
The Hague Programme subsequently set new targets, particularly in connection with the ‘fight against terrorism’, to make progress in the communitisation of this area, which lies at the heart of the Member States’ sovereignty.
In the light of this proposal and as our Parliamentary group has stressed, it is worrying that the report establishes that ‘notwithstanding the necessity of providing the sentenced person with adequate safeguards, his or her involvement in the proceedings should no longer be dominant by requiring in all cases his or her consent to the forwarding of a judgment to another Member State for the purpose of its recognition and enforcement of the sentence imposed’, particularly since we fail to see how not ensuring this principle is consistent with the aim of the Framework Decision: to help to rehabilitate the person sentenced."@en1
