The meeting was chaired by Italian Minister Andrea Orlando who declared that; “each and every European can expect a justice system in Europe that is transparent, fair, and that will give everyone adequate protection. As PES Ministers of Justice, it is our duty to promote a solid system that will protect our citizens’ data as well as their security. We had the opportunity today to reconfirm our shared values and views on the very important issues that have been put on the agenda by the Italian Presidency. Issues such as personal data protection, the European Public Prosecutor’s Office, mutual recognition, or the simplification of public documents concern all European citizens. Today we open a strong way to work together to build a social perspective of justice”.
“We are looking forward to continue our joint endeavour”.
