"In today’s part-session, Ms Sippel’s report on the right to information in criminal proceedings was put to the vote. The numerous ramifications of the right to information play an essential role in effectively protecting the rights of citizens who are directly or potentially affected.
In this vein, the EU will make every effort to achieve more detailed and standardised procedural regulations on the subject. The purpose of the right to information in criminal proceedings is to guarantee that suspected or accused persons are aware of the charges or investigations against them, and have the right to interpretation and the right to contact family members. It also provides for the introduction of robust guarantees on the implementation of safety and preventive measures so that the right to defence through a legal representative can be carried out as well as possible in view of the principle of culpability.
It has emerged just as clearly that the regulation on the European arrest warrant ought to be examined with regard to the rights of the persons involved and the limits on the actions of judicial authorities. Parliament believes that international and interinstitutional cooperation is required so that the provisions on the right to information in criminal proceedings can be extended and clarified where there are shortcomings or contradictions, in order to better protect the suspect."@en1
