Book Synopsis Policing Cooperation Across Borders by : Saskia Hufnagel
Download or read book Policing Cooperation Across Borders written by Saskia Hufnagel and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-04-22 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides new insights into police cooperation from a comparative socio-legal perspective. It presents a broad analysis of comparable police cooperation strategies in two systems: the EU and Australia. The evolution of regulatory trends and cooperation models is analysed for both systems and possible transferable strategies identified. Drawing on interviews with practitioners in the EU and Australia this book highlights a number of areas where the EU can be compared to a federal system and addresses the advantages and disadvantages of being a Union or a federation of states with a view to police cooperation practice. Particular topics addressed are the evolution of legal frameworks regulating police cooperation, informal cooperation strategies, Joint Investigation Teams, Europol and regional cooperation. These instruments foster police cooperation, but could be improved with a view to cooperation practice by learning from regulatory techniques and practitioner experiences of the respective other system.

Book Synopsis The Enforcement of EU Law by : Stine Andersen
Download or read book The Enforcement of EU Law written by Stine Andersen and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2012-11-29 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A comprehensive analysis of the European Commission's general role in supervising member state compliance with EU law, this book provides a detailed assessment of centralized EU enforcement. It starts out by asking whether it is viable to establish stronger Commission powers of enforcement at this point in time. Against this backdrop, and as a means of exploring the role of the Commission, the chapters examine a number of different aspects pertaining to enforcement of EU law. Beginning with an appraisal of the Commission's function under the general EU infringement procedure stipulated in Articles 258 and 260 TFEU, the volume argues that the EU lacks independent self-sustained regime authority. Moreover, this is reflected in both substantive EU law and procedural law, including the general EU infringement procedure. Chapter two makes the case that Article 258 TFEU can usefully be explained in terms of managerialism. Chapter three analyses Article 260 TFEU concerning repetitive infringements. In particular, it asserts, EU member state sanctions sustain the managerial approach. It then goes on to examine the Commission's unsuccessful attempts to gain sharper enforcement powers through secondary legislation, and identifies the effective points of functional overlap between enforcement powers and certain types of implementing tools. Finally, it discusses the Commission's role under various non-binding, ad hoc arrangements. The concluding chapter places the general EU infringement procedure in the broader context of a comprehensive (negotiated) policy process. It argues that the enforcement stage shares many features with earlier steps in the legislative process, including flexibility and deliberation.

Book Synopsis Enforcement of European Union Environmental Law by : Martin Hedemann-Robinson
Download or read book Enforcement of European Union Environmental Law written by Martin Hedemann-Robinson and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015-05-15 with total page 787 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Offering a detailed account of the various legal arrangements at European Union level, this book is an ideal reference tool for practitioners and legal scholars. As well as examining the principal sources of EU environmental law enforcement, it also contributes to the legal and political debates that surround the subject. Spanning three parts, the author examines the practical impact of the legal arrangements at Union level that are used to uphold EU environmental norms. Offering a comprehensive account of the current state of EU environmental law enforcement and the developments affecting it, Martin Hedemann-Robinson explores the role of the European Commission, the possibilities for private law enforcement, and the responsibilities of member state national authorities. Key legal developments that have occurred since the first edition have been incorporated, including new statutory developments and case law. Particular attention is paid to the impact of the 2007 Lisbon Treaty on foundational EU treaty provisions enabling the European Commission to take legal action against EU member states infringing Union environmental law, the establishment of a new legal architecture at Union level on the topic of environmental criminal policy, as well as increased EU legislative intervention in the area of environmental inspections. The impact of the 1998 Århus Convention on EU environmental law enforcement is also addressed in detail, including the influence of recommendations of the Århus Convention’s Compliance Committee.
Book Synopsis Data Protection in EU and US Criminal Cooperation by : Els de Busser
Download or read book Data Protection in EU and US Criminal Cooperation written by Els de Busser and published by Maklu. This book was released on 2009 with total page 476 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The research in this doctoral thesis examines the protection of personal data in two relationships: between judicial and law enforcement authorities of the EU Member States (including Europol and Eurojust) on the one hand and the US on the other hand. The book provides answers to the central question as to whether the EU complies with her own standards of data protection in these internal relations, as well as in the transatlantic cooperation in criminal matters. The new framework decision on data protection in criminal matters that entered into force in early 2009 is a significant element in this study, alongside the agreement concluded between the EU and the US on the mutual assistance in criminal matters of which the entry into force is equally planned for 2009. The book also reflects on the policy proposals of the EU on justice and home affairs for the period of 2010-2014.

Book Synopsis An EU Competition Court by : Great Britain: Parliament: House of Lords: European Union Committee
Download or read book An EU Competition Court written by Great Britain: Parliament: House of Lords: European Union Committee and published by The Stationery Office. This book was released on 2007-04-23 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Large cross-border mergers have to be cleared in advance by the EC Commission. If the Commission prohibits a merger, or a third party objects to the clearance, the decision can be challenged in the Court of First Instance (CFI). However the CFI procedure can take several months, thereby prolonging uncertainty and sometimes causing bids to be abandoned. This is unsatisfactory and the CBI has proposed a new Competition Court as the way forward. This report looks at this proposal and concludes that such a court would not be the best way forward. Instead there is scope for improving current procedures by firmer case management, reducing the work load of the CFI by transferring trade mark cases, and improving the Commission's handling of cases to reduce the number and scope of challenges.
Book Synopsis Financial management in the European Union by : Great Britain: National Audit Office
Download or read book Financial management in the European Union written by Great Britain: National Audit Office and published by The Stationery Office. This book was released on 2007-04-18 with total page 38 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This NAO report examines the state of financial management in the European Union. It is divided into three parts, with appendices. Part one, looks at the background; Part two, presents key findings in respect of the main expenditure areas, irregularities and possible fraud; Part three, looks at improving the financial management. Amongst the findings and recommendations of the National Audit Office are: for 2005, the European Union's expenditure totalled £71.1 billion, with a revenue of £72.3 billion, and the UK's net contribution coming to £2.5 billion, comprising payments of £8.3 billion, with a £3.5 billion abatement. Against this background of financial contribution, was a report from the European Court of Auditors, in October 2006, which found the accounts of the European Union did reflect the revenue and expenditure for the year, but had noted some errors in relation to balance sheet items, which led the Court not to issue a Statement of Assurance, which confirms the legality and regularity of the European Community's expenditure. For the NAO, the main findings included the views of the European Court of Auditors, that financial management had been strengthened and consolidated. Further anti-fraud measures, as introduced by OLAF (the European Union's Anti-Fraud Office) had also been strengthened, and that European Union expenditure was not subject to excessive fraud. The NAO sees the success of gaining a Statement of Assurance, as linked to the implementation of the European Commission's action plan of simplifying the rules and regulations governing European Union programmes (as noted in the HCP 498, session 2004-05, ISBN 0215023870). The Court of Auditor's also noted some weaknesses in the UK's management and control of structural measures programmes, and the NAO states that relevant UK authorities should ensure their risk management arrangements focus on the need for proper control and management of European Union funds.

Book Synopsis Human Rights and Minority Rights in the European Union by : Kirsten Shoraka
Download or read book Human Rights and Minority Rights in the European Union written by Kirsten Shoraka and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2010-06-17 with total page 452 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The end of the Cold War has ushered a restructuring of the institutions of the European Community, culminating into its enlargement to Eastern Europe, under the aegis of economic integration, democracy and human rights. This book examines the development and the role of human rights in the European Union, from its inception as an economic co-operation project to an organisation of European States with a political agenda that goes beyond its borders. It argues that human rights have become an important component of the foreign policy of the European Union and that this role has grown from the inception of the Union through the Cold War and thereafter onto the process of enlargement of the Union. The book goes on to analyse the EU’s policy on minorities, as a particular example of human rights. It considers the level of their protection within the EU and the framework of international law, and compares minority rights in the older Member States including France, Germany and the UK, with newer Eastern European states.
Book Synopsis Malta in the European Union by : Mark Harwood
Download or read book Malta in the European Union written by Mark Harwood and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-05-13 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Malta has bucked the trend of its EU Mediterranean neighbours in many ways. This smallest of EU states barely dipped into recession during the global financial crisis and remains a stable member of the Eurozone whilst also having one of the lowest infringement rates and highest transposition of EU law records amongst the 28 member states. Providing the first comprehensive study of Malta's complex road to EU membership this book looks at the impact of membership on the country's political structures and processes and explains the principal factors that have conditioned the country's Europeanization experience. Reflecting Malta's unique and often contentious road to membership, the book explores the historical context and outlines how Maltese processes and policies have changed since membership and whether a causative link exists between these changes and Malta's membership of the EU. A wide range of primary and secondary sources facilitate the study complemented by a series of interviews with a broad range of Malta's political and social actors as well as individuals from EU institutions. This depth of analysis enables a holistic view of Malta's first decade of EU membership and helps establish the fundamental characteristics of Malta's unique Europeanization experience.
