"I voted for this report because it clearly defines the principles that should be taken into account when developing an EU approach on criminal law. So far, the European Union has often developed criminal law provisions on an ad hoc basis, thus creating the need for increased coherence. It is fundamental to acknowledge that an EU criminal law should constitute a coherent legislative system governed by a set of fundamental values in full respect of the EU Charter of Fundamental Rights and of the European Convention on Human Rights. I also believe that the harmonisation of criminal law in the EU will contribute to the development of a common EU legal culture in relation to fighting crime and to a more coordinated action against the most serious crimes. In addition, I would like to stress the importance of the establishment of uniform minimum standards of protection at the highest possible level for suspects and defendants in criminal proceedings in order to strengthen mutual trust amongst the legal systems of the Member States."@en1
