"The report proposes harmonisation of criminal law in Member States with the aim of establishing a common legal culture for combating crime. Criminal law differs from other areas of the law, specifically because, by its definition, it restricts certain human rights pertaining to the fundamental freedoms of the defendants and/or of those convicted. On many occasions, even though a person is not convicted, the criminal investigation itself may result in them being stigmatised, so that many people will tend to believe that there is no smoke without fire.
To facilitate cooperation in future, the institutions must agree on a certain kind of common framework. Such a framework could include a set of principles governing any criminal law instrument. I also think that such a framework ought to include specific guidelines on the internal procedures within each institution to ensure a coherent approach."@en1
