European Judicial Systems

Efficiency and Quality of Justice : Thematic Report : Use of Information Technology in European Courts

By: European Commission for the Efficiency of Justice

The Council of Europe's European Commission for the Efficiency of Justice (CEPEJ) carried out a thorough evaluation of the use of information technology (IT) in the judicial systems of the Organisation's Member states as part of the CEPEJ's 2014-2016 cycle. The aim was not only to draw up an inventory of the development of information technology tools and applications in the courts and prosecution services but also to identify very first means of analysis of their impact on the efficiency and quality of the public service of justice. The first part of the report is devoted to a thorough analysis of the State of development of IT. This analysis leads to a confirmation of the trend outlined in previous reports: most countries have invested significantly in IT for the functioning of their courts. This preliminary finding makes it possible identifying in a second part of this report other trends regarding the impact of information technology from the perspective of efficiency and quality.

Regional Economic Outlook, November 2017, Europe

Europe Hitting Its Stride

By: International Monetary Fund. European Dept.

The European recovery is strengthening and broadening appreciably. Real GDP growth is projected at 2.4 percent in 2017, up from 1.7 percent in 2016, before easing to 2.1 percent in 2018. These are large upward revisions—0.5 and 0.2 percentage point for 2017 and 2018, respectively—relative to the April World Economic Outlook. The European recovery is spilling over to the rest of the world, contributing significantly to global growth. In a few advanced and many emerging economies, unemployment rates have returned to precrisis levels. Most emerging market European economies are now seeing robust wage growth. In many parts of Europe, however, wage growth is sluggish despite falling unemployment.

Bulgaria

Selected Issues

By: International Monetary Fund. European Dept.

This Selected Issues paper examines corporate productivity growth in Bulgaria using firm-level data. Firms with a higher share of innovative assets and lower financial distress are estimated to have higher productivity growth. Foreign, larger, and younger firms and firms in the tradable sectors also generally had faster productivity growth. The convergence of productivity to frontier firms may have slowed after the global financial crisis for existing firms. The evidence points to technological convergence for both total factor productivity and labor productivity to industry leaders. The result is robust with the coefficient statistically significant at the 1 percent level in all specifications. Policies that support R&D and innovation, improve business environment, and reduce debt service burden could potentially help raise productivity growth. Bulgaria’s R&D spending lags behind other EU countries and there is ample room for improvement. A better business environment supported by stronger institutions could help improve company’s profitability and financial health, raise investment, and attract more foreign direct investment, all conducive to raising productivity growth.

This Selected Issues paper estimates a small open economy model that makes it possible to quantify the relative strength of the trade and financial channels in Hungary, Poland. and Romania. The Bayesian results indicate that both the trade and financial channels are strongest for Romania, possibly owing to the expansion of financial balance sheets and lower integration into global supply chains. For all countries, tighter domestic monetary conditions result in reduction of output and currency appreciation, although the magnitude of appreciation is less in Romania compared with peers. The trade channel is also dominant in the transmission of foreign monetary policy shocks, which result in output losses and currency depreciation.

This note presents estimates of potential growth and the output gap in Latvia. The estimates suggest that the output has marked below potential in the early 2000s but the output gap becomes positive and large after EU accession. With unemployment still well above its natural level, the output gap is estimated to be negative in 2012, but is expected to narrow gradually and be closed in the next 3–4 years. Potential growth is expected to be substantially lower than in 2002–07.

European Small Claims Procedure

Report with Evidence; 23rd Report of Session 2005-06

By: Great Britain: Parliament: House of Lords: European Union Committee

The European Commission has recently adopted a proposal for the a Regulation crating a European Small Claims Procedure, which seeks to secure consumers' access to justice and settlement of disputes in the single market. The ESCP would provide a procedure available in the courts of all Member States to deal with cross-border cases and simple enforcement across national boundaries. In its examination of the Regulation the Committee identifies three main difficulties: differences between the Commission and Member States, most importantly on costs; the need for the practicalities of the scheme to be given more attention; lack of clarity in some parts of the text of the Regulation.

Workload of the Court of Justice of the European Union

Follow-up Report, 16th Report of Session 2012-13

By: Great Britain: Parliament: House of Lords: European Union Committee

The report Workload Of The Court Of Justice Of The European Union: Follow-Up Report (HL 163) examines the progress towards adopting the recommendations set out in the paper The Workload Of The Court Of Justice Of The European Union. These recommendations were aimed at managing the heavy workload of the Court of Justice of the European Union (CJEU). Since the original report was published, the CJEU has undertaken some reforms to try to reduce the backlog of cases of the Court of Justice (CJ). However, the number of cases pending before the CJ continues to rise year on year. It is imperative that the right balance is struck between the length of time it takes for the Court to dispense with a case, and the quality of its judgments in order to preserve its credibility. The Court and Member States need to keep the workload of the Court under review in order to react before the workload has an adverse effect on the efficiency of the Court. The C

European Standards of Electoral Law in Contemporary Constitutionalism

By: European Commission for Democracy through Law

This volume includes the reports presented at the seminar on "European standards of electoral law in contemporary constitutionalism" organised by the Venice Commission in co-operation with the Constitutional Court of the Republic of Bulgaria in Sofia (Bulgaria), on 28 and 29 May 2004. Electoral law and co-operation with constitutional courts and courts of equivalent jurisdiction have been two of the main areas of the activities of the Venice Commission since its creation in 1990. The reports cover such fundamental issues as the advantages and shortcomings of different electoral systems, the case law of higher national courts on electoral disputes, the participation of foreigners in the electoral process at the local level, the electoral rights of individuals having the citizenship of other European countries and the possible development of electoral law within the European Union.

The workload of the Court of Justice of the European Union

14th report of session 2010-11

By: Great Britain: Parliament: House of Lords: European Union Committee

Another crisis of workload within the Court of Justice of the European Union (CJEU) can be expected soon unless more Judges and Advocates General are appointed. The House of Lords European Union Committee found that the increasing size of the EU's membership, coupled with the expansion of the CJEU's jurisdiction since the Lisbon Treaty, mean that the institution will struggle to manage its existing workload, let alone an expanding one. On the General Court, the Committee report that structural solutions need to be found urgently and recommend an increase in the General Court's judiciary as the best and most flexible long-term solution to the workload problems, despite potential cost implications. The relatively straightforward reform of boosting the number of AGs and judges would improve the speed with which cases can be dealt.

This Selected Issues paper presents Italy’s economic growth through innovation and reforms. It highlights that Italy’s future competitiveness depends on the institutional and macroeconomic conditions that allow productive firms to innovate, expand, and attract inward foreign direct investment (FDI) that in turn will require the successful implementation of the authorities’ full structural- and institutional-reform agenda. The IMF report focuses on the enforcement of civil and commercial claims in Italy as a key way to improve the environment for sustaining economic growth. There has been considerable interest in the possibility of introducing a comprehensive wealth tax in Italy, reflecting the public resistance to spending-only austerity.

Judicial Co-Operation in the Eu

By: Great Britain. Parliament. House of Lords. European Union Committee

Eurojust (the EU Judicial Co-operation Unit) was established by a Council Decision in February 2002 to facilitate judicial co-operation in criminal matters within the EU. It comprises a group of full-time judges and prosecutors, one from each of the 25 EU member states, who assist national authorities in investigation and prosecuting serious cross-border crime, such as terrorism, drug trafficking, money laundering and trafficking in human beings. The Committees report finds that Eurojust has proved itself to be a highly effective means of facilitating co-operation in these matters, and notes that the Office of the European Public Prosecutor (to be established in due course) should build on its approach. Five key recommendations are made to further enhance the effectiveness of Eurojust including the need for data protection rules and for closer co-operation with Europol and the European Anti-Fraud Office (OLAF).

Malta has experienced an impressive recovery from the pandemic and demonstrated resilience to shocks resulting from Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. With weaker growth in Europe and waning post-pandemic pent-up demand, staff expect growth to decelerate somewhat but continue to expand by 61⁄4 percent in 2023 and 5 percent in 2024, among the highest in Europe. Persistent inflationary pressures are expected, while concern has risen about growing capacity constraints. The financial system has demonstrated resilience to successive shocks.

Economic Migration to the EU

Report with Evidence; 14th Report of Session 2005-06

By: Great Britain: Parliament: House of Lords: European Union Committee

The European Commission published a Green Paper ("An EU approach to managing economic migration") in January 2005, setting out proposals for a common EU policy for the admission of immigrants for employment and migrant workers' rights. In light of this consultation paper, the Committee's report examines the issue of economic migration to the EU and the level at which it should be regulated, and discusses whether Member States should retain the freedom to decide on issues of economic migration independently of each other. The report is mostly concerned with migration into the EU, but also looks at some aspects of intra-EU movement; it does not consider illegal immigration or asylum issues. Issues discussed include: wider economic issues, the impact of globalisation, EU enlargement, options for control of migrant workers, the UK's position on the Commission's Green Paper, the case for a common EU policy, and the rights of migrant workers.

Cyprus

2019 Article IV Consultation-Press Release; Staff Report; and Statement by the Executive Director for Cyprus

By: International Monetary Fund. European Dept.

This 2019 Article IV Consultation with Cyprus discusses that following a period of very rapid growth in the aftermath of the economic crisis, growth is gradually settling in at a more sustainable but still relatively robust pace despite the external slowdown. Output is projected to rise by around 3 percent in 2019–20, supported by construction and services sectors. Good progress has been made in addressing domestic and external stability risks arising from legacies of the financial crisis. Sales of nonperforming loans (NPLs), amendments to the foreclosure and insolvency framework and resolution of a large systemic bank have helped strengthen bank balance sheets. Reversal of reforms to the foreclosure framework would hinder ongoing NPL resolution efforts and create risks for financial stability. Realization of contingent liabilities from the still weak banking sector or increased fiscal spending pressures could undermine investor confidence, raising interest costs and depressing growth. Cyprus needs to build on recent gains by advancing reforms to secure macroeconomic stability, enhance efficiency and strengthen productivity and growth potential.
