Procedural Safeguards
Remedies
Effective remedies must exist for violations of rights. If safeguards are breached, individuals must have access to redress, including exclusion of evidence or release from custody.
Advancing the Rule of Law Through Effective Defence Rights
The establishment and enhancement of Procedural Safeguards across the European Union and Council of Europe member states is a key policy objective of the ECBA.
Our entire organization — including all working groups — contributes to this crucial area of work, which is overseen by the Executive Committee.
Particular leadership is provided by our Chair, Vânia Costa Ramos, and Vice-Chairs Amedeo Barletta, Rebecca Niblock, Miroslav Krutina, and Gwen Jansen - de Wolf (pictured from left to right).
If you are an ECBA member and would like to take a more active role in advancing our work on Procedural Safeguards and Defence Rights, please contact the Secretariat and include a brief outline of your interest and relevant experience.
