This empirical study of the procedural rights of suspects in four
EU jurisdictions - France, Scotland, the Netherlands and England
and Wales - focuses on three of the procedural rights set out in
the EU Roadmap for strengthening the procedural rights of suspected
or accused persons in criminal proceedings - the right to
interpretation and translation; the right to information and the
letter of rights; and the right to legal assistance before and
during police interrogation. In order to examine how these
procedural rights operate in practice, the authors spent between
two and five months in eight field sites across the four
jurisdictions. During this time they observed lawyers and police
officers during the period of police custody; examined case
records; observed lawyer-client consultations; and attended suspect
interrogations. Furthermore, they conducted 75 interviews with
police officers, lawyers and accredited legal representatives. In
addition to producing and analysing empirical data, the authors
have developed training guidelines for lawyers and police officers
involved in the police detention process for use across the EU. The
project team also produced a series of recommendations for
legislative and policy changes designed to ensure better
enforcement of the EU procedural rights' instruments that are
envisaged in the Stockholm Programme. The was carried out by the
Universities of Maastricht, Warwick and the West of England,
together with JUSTICE. Avon and Somerset Police and the Open
Society Justice Initiative were also collaborators on the project.
