Igazságszolgáltatás
47. cikk - A hatékony jogorvoslathoz és a tisztességes eljáráshoz való jog
Mindenkinek, akinek az Unió joga által biztosított jogait és szabadságait megsértették, az e cikkben megállapított feltételek mellett joga van a bíróság előtti hatékony jogorvoslathoz. Mindenkinek joga van arra, hogy ügyét a törvény által megelőzően létrehozott független és pártatlan bíróság tisztességesen, nyilvánosan és ésszerű időn belül tárgyalja. Mindenkinek biztosítani kell a lehetőséget tanácsadás, védelem és képviselet igénybevételéhez. Azoknak, akik nem rendelkeznek elégséges pénzeszközökkel, költségmentességet kell biztosítani, amennyiben az igazságszolgáltatás hatékony igénybevételéhez erre szükség van.
Az első bekezdés az EJEE 13. cikkén alapul: `Bárkinek, akinek a jelen Egyezményben meghatározott jogait és szabadságait megsértették, joga van ahhoz, hogy a hazai hatóság előtt a jogsérelem hatékony orvoslását kérje az esetben is, ha e jogokat hivatalos minőségben eljáró személyek sértették meg.` Az uniós jogban ugyanakkor a védelem szélesebb körű, mivel bíróság előtti hatékony jogorvoslathoz való jogot biztosít. A Bíróság 1986. május 15-i ítélete ezt a jogot az uniós jog általános elveként ismerte el (222/84. sz. Johnston-ügy [EBHT 1986., 1651. o.]; lásd még a 222/86. sz. Heylens-ügyben 1987. október 15-én hozott ítéletet [EBHT 1987., 4097. o.], valamint a C-97/91. sz. Borelli-ügyben 1992. december 3-án hozott ítéletet [EBHT 1992., I-6313. o.]). A Bíróság szerint az uniós jog általános alapelve az uniós jog végrehajtása során a tagállamokra is vonatkozik. E precedens a Chartába való beillesztésének nem célja a Szerződések által meghatározott bírósági felülvizsgálat rendjének, különösen a közvetlen keresetek Európai Unió Bírósága előtti elfogadhatóságára vonatkozó szabályoknak a megváltoztatása. Az Európai Konvent megvitatta az Unió bírósági felülvizsgálati rendszerét, az elfogadhatóságra vonatkozó szabályokat is beleértve, és megerősítette, egyben bizonyos szempontból módosította azokat, mint ahogyan az az Európai Unió működéséről szóló szerződés 251–281. cikkéből, és különösen a 263. cikkének negyedik bekezdéséből kitűnik. A 47. cikk az Unió intézményeire, és – amennyiben azok uniós jogot hajtanak végre – a tagállamok intézményeire, valamint az uniós jog által biztosított valamennyi jogra vonatkozik. A második bekezdés az EJEE 6. cikkének (1) bekezdésén alapul, amely a következőképpen szól: `Mindenkinek joga van arra, hogy ügyét a törvény által létrehozott független és pártatlan bíróság tisztességesen nyilvánosan és ésszerű időn belül tárgyalja, és hozzon határozatot polgári jogi jogai és kötelezettségei tárgyában, illetőleg az ellene felhozott büntetőjogi vádak megalapozottságát illetően. Az ítéletet nyilvánosan kell kihirdetni, a tárgyalóterembe történő belépést azonban meg lehet tiltani a sajtónak és a közönségnek a tárgyalás teljes időtartamára vagy egy részére annyiban, amennyiben egy demokratikus társadalomban ez az erkölcsök, a közrend, illetőleg a nemzetbiztonság érdekében szükséges, ha e korlátozás kiskorúak érdekei, vagy az eljárásban résztvevő felek magánéletének védelme szempontjából szükséges, illetőleg annyiban, amennyiben ezt a bíróság feltétlenül szükségesnek tartja, mert úgy ítéli meg, hogy az adott ügyben olyan különleges körülmények állnak fenn, melyek folytán a nyilvánosság az igazságszolgáltatás érdekeit veszélyeztetné.` Az uniós jogban a bírósághoz fordulás joga nem korlátozódik a polgári jogi jogokkal és kötelezettségekkel kapcsolatos jogvitákra. Ez annak egyik következménye, hogy az Unió jogállamiságon alapuló közösség, a 294/83. sz. `Les Verts` kontra Európai Parlament ügyben 1986. április 23-án hozott ítélet (EBHT 1986., 1339. o.) rendelkezésének értelmében. Mindemellett azonban az EJEE által nyújtott biztosítékok minden – alkalmazási körükön kívül eső – tekintetben hasonló módon vonatkoznak az Unióra.
A harmadik bekezdés tekintetében meg kell jegyezni, hogy az Emberi Jogok Európai Bíróságának ítélkezési gyakorlatával összhangban költségmentességre vonatkozó rendelkezést kell hozni, amennyiben az ilyen segítségnyújtás hiánya lehetetlenné tenné a hatékony jogorvoslat biztosítását ( 1979. október 9-i EJEE ítélet, Airey, A sorozat, 32. kötet, 11.). Létezik költségmentességi rendszer az Európai Unió Bírósága elé került ügyek esetében is.

See ECHR provisions of Article 6 which have been incorporated into UK law by the Human Rights Act 1998.. Schdule 1, Article 6 Right to a fair trial 1 In the determination of his civil rights and obligations or of any criminal charge against him, everyone is entitled to a fair and public hearing within a reasonable time by an independent and impartial tribunal established by law. Judgment shall be pronounced publicly but the press and public may be excluded from all or part of the trial in the interest of morals, public order or national security in a democratic society, where the interests of juveniles or the protection of the private life of the parties so require, or to the extent strictly necessary in the opinion of the court in special circumstances where publicity would prejudice the interests of justice. 2 Everyone charged with a criminal offence shall be presumed innocent until proved guilty according to law. 3 Everyone charged with a criminal offence has the following minimum rights: (a)to be informed promptly, in a language which he understands and in detail, of the nature and cause of the accusation against him; (b)to have adequate time and facilities for the preparation of his defence; (c)to defend himself in person or through legal assistance of his own choosing or, if he has not sufficient means to pay for legal assistance, to be given it free when the interests of justice so require; (d)to examine or have examined witnesses against him and to obtain the attendance and examination of witnesses on his behalf under the same conditions as witnesses against him; (e)to have the free assistance of an interpreter if he cannot understand or speak the language used in court.
Chapter 2 - Fundamental rights and freedoms: Article 9 If a public authority other than a court of law has deprived an individual of his or her liberty on account of a criminal act or because he or she is suspected of having committed such an act, the individual shall be entitled to have the deprivation of liberty examined before a court of law without undue delay. This shall not, however, apply where the matter concerns the transfer to Sweden of responsibility for executing a penal sanction involving deprivation of liberty according to a sentence in another state. Also those who for reasons other than those specified in paragraph one, have been taken forcibly into custody, shall likewise be entitled to have the matter of custody examined before a court of law without undue delay (...) Also those who for reasons other than those specified in paragraph one, have been taken forcibly into custody, shall likewise be entitled to have the matter of custody examined before a court of law without undue delay. In such a case, examination before a tribunal shall be equated with examination before a court of law, provided the composition of the tribunal has been laid down in law and it is stipulated that the chair of the tribunal shall be currently, or shall have been previously, a permanent salaried judge (...); Article 10 No one may be sentenced to a penalty or penal sanction for an act which was not subject to a penal sanction at the time it was committed. Nor may anyone be sentenced to a penal sanction which is more severe than that which was in force when the act was committed. The provisions laid down here with respect to penal sanctions also apply to forfeiture and other special legal effects of crime (...); Article 11 No court of law may be established on account of an act already committed, or for a particular dispute or otherwise for a particular case. Legal proceedings shall be carried out fairly and within a reasonable period of time. Proceedings in courts of law shall be open to the public.
2 kapitlet - Grundläggande fri- och rättigheter: 9 § Om en annan myndighet än en domstol har berövat någon friheten med anledning av brott eller misstanke om brott, ska han eller hon kunna få frihetsberövandet prövat av domstol utan oskäligt dröjsmål. Detta gäller dock inte när det är fråga om att till Sverige flytta över verkställighet av en frihetsberövande påföljd enligt en dom i en annan stat. Även den som av någon annan anledning än som anges i första stycket har blivit omhändertagen tvångsvis, ska kunna få omhändertagandet prövat av domstol utan oskäligt dröjsmål. Med prövning av domstol likställs i sådant fall prövning av en nämnd, om nämndens sammansättning är bestämd i lag och ordföranden i nämnden ska vara eller ha varit ordinarie domare. Har prövningen inte uppdragits åt en myndighet som är behörig enligt första eller andra stycket, ska prövningen göras av allmän domstol; 10 § Ingen får dömas till straff eller annan brottspåföljd för en gärning som inte var belagd med brottspåföljd när den begicks. Inte heller får någon dömas till svårare brottspåföljd för gärningen än den som var föreskriven då. Vad som föreskrivs här om brottspåföljd gäller även förverkande och annan särskild rättsverkan av brott. (...); 11 § Domstol får inte inrättas för en redan begången gärning och inte heller för en viss tvist eller i övrigt för ett visst mål. En rättegång ska genomföras rättvist och inom skälig tid. Förhandling vid domstol ska vara offentlig.

Article 8
Respect for the Charter
1. All operations shall be selected and implemented while respecting the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union (the ‘Charter’) and in accordance with the relevant provisions of Regulation (EU) 2021/1060.
2. In accordance with Article 69(7) of Regulation (EU) 2021/1060, Member States shall ensure the effective examination of complaints. This is without prejudice to the general possibility of citizens and stakeholders to address complaints to the Commission, including with regard to infringements of the Charter.
3. Where the Commission finds that there has been an infringement of the Charter, the Commission shall take into account the gravity of the infringement in its determination of the corrective measures to be applied in line with the relevant provisions of Regulation (EU) 2021/1060.
(24) Where an institution does not present an adequate recovery plan, competent authorities should be empowered to require that institution to take measures necessary to redress the material deficiencies of the plan. That requirement may affect the freedom to conduct a business as guaranteed by Article 16 of the Charter. The limitation of that fundamental right is however necessary to meet the objectives of financial stability. More specifically, such a limitation is necessary in order to strengthen the business of institutions and avoid institutions growing excessively or taking excessive risks without being able to tackle setbacks and losses and to restore their capital base. The limitation is proportionate because it permits preventative action to the extent that it is necessary to address the deficiencies and therefore complies with Article 52 of the Charter.
(49) The limitations on the rights of shareholders and creditors should be in accordance with Article 52 of the Charter. The resolution tools should therefore be applied only to those institutions that are failing or likely to fail, and only when it is necessary to pursue the objective of financial stability in the general interest. In particular, resolution tools should be applied where the institution cannot be wound up under normal insolvency proceedings without destabilising the financial system and the measures are necessary in order to ensure the rapid transfer and continuation of systemically important functions and where there is no reasonable prospect for any alternative private solution, including any increase of capital by the existing shareholders or by any third party sufficient to restore the full viability of the institution. In addition, when applying resolutions tools and exercising resolution powers, the principle of proportionality and the particularities of the legal form of an institution should be taken into account.
(88) In accordance with Article 47 of the Charter, the parties concerned have a right to due process and to an effective remedy against the measures affecting them. Therefore, the decisions taken by the resolution authorities should be subject to a right of appeal.
Article 1
Subject matter and scope
1. This Regulation lays down uniform rules to address the misuse of hosting services for the dissemination to the public of terrorist content online, in particular on:
(a) reasonable and proportionate duties of care to be applied by hosting service providers in order to address the dissemination to the public of terrorist content through their services and ensure, where necessary, the expeditious removal of or disabling of access to such content;
(b) the measures to be put in place by Member States, in accordance with Union law and subject to suitable safeguards to protect fundamental rights, in particular the freedom of expression and information in an open and democratic society, in order to:
(i) identify and ensure the expeditious removal of terrorist content by hosting service providers; and
(ii) facilitate cooperation among the competent authorities of Member States, hosting service providers and, where appropriate, Europol.
2. This Regulation applies to hosting service providers offering services in the Union, irrespective of their place of main establishment, insofar as they disseminate information to the public.
3. Material disseminated to the public for educational, journalistic, artistic or research purposes or for the purposes of preventing or countering terrorism, including material which represents an expression of polemic or controversial views in the course of public debate, shall not be considered to be terrorist content. An assessment shall determine the true purpose of that dissemination and whether material is disseminated to the public for those purposes.
4. This Regulation shall not have the effect of modifying the obligation to respect the rights, freedoms and principles referred to in Article 6 TEU and shall apply without prejudice to fundamental principles relating to freedom of expression and information, including freedom and pluralism of the media.
5. This Regulation shall be without prejudice to Directives 2000/31/EC and 2010/13/EU. For audiovisual media services as defined in point (a) of Article 1(1) of Directive 2010/13/EU, Directive 2010/13/EU shall prevail.
(73) This Regulation respects fundamental rights and observes the principles recognised in the Charter, in particular Articles 7, 9, 17, 21 and 47 concerning, respectively, respect for private and family life, the right to marry and to found a family according to national laws, property rights, the principle of non-discrimination and the right to an effective remedy and to a fair trial. This Regulation should be applied by the courts and other competent authorities of the Member States in compliance with those rights and principles.
Subject matter
1. This Regulation lays down the rules under which an authority of a Member State, in criminal proceedings, may issue a European Production Order or a European Preservation Order and thereby order a service provider offering services in the Union and established in another Member State, or, if not established, represented by a legal representative in another Member State, to produce or to preserve electronic evidence regardless of the location of the data. This Regulation is without prejudice to the powers of national authorities to address service providers established or represented on their territory for the purpose of ensuring that they comply with national measures similar to those referred to in the first subparagraph.
2. The issuing of a European Production Order or of a European Preservation Order may also be requested by a suspect or an accused person, or by a lawyer on that person’s behalf within the framework of applicable defence rights in accordance with national criminal procedural law.
3. This Regulation shall not have the effect of modifying the obligation to respect the fundamental rights and legal principles as enshrined in the Charter and in Article 6 TEU, and any obligations applicable to law enforcement authorities or judicial authorities in this respect shall remain unaffected. This Regulation applies without prejudice to fundamental principles, in particular the freedom of expression and information, including the freedom and pluralism of the media, respect for private and family life, the protection of personal data, as well as the right to effective judicial protection.
Purpose
This Directive aims to achieve a more balanced representation of women and men among the directors of listed companies by establishing effective measures that aim to accelerate progress towards gender balance, while allowing listed companies sufficient time to make the necessary arrangements for that purpose.
The purpose of this Directive is to enhance the enforcement of Union law and policies in specific areas by laying down common minimum standards providing for a high level of protection of persons reporting breaches of Union law.
Article 34
Risk assessment
1. Providers of very large online platforms and of very large online search engines shall diligently identify, analyse and assess any systemic risks in the Union stemming from the design or functioning of their service and its related systems, including algorithmic systems, or from the use made of their services.
They shall carry out the risk assessments by the date of application referred to in Article 33(6), second subparagraph, and at least once every year thereafter, and in any event prior to deploying functionalities that are likely to have a critical impact on the risks identified pursuant to this Article. This risk assessment shall be specific to their services and proportionate to the systemic risks, taking into consideration their severity and probability, and shall include the following systemic risks:
(b) any actual or foreseeable negative effects for the exercise of fundamental rights, in particular the fundamental rights to human dignity enshrined in Article 1 of the Charter, to respect for private and family life enshrined in Article 7 of the Charter, to the protection of personal data enshrined in Article 8 of the Charter, to freedom of expression and information, including the freedom and pluralism of the media, enshrined in Article 11 of the Charter, to non-discrimination enshrined in Article 21 of the Charter, to respect for the rights of the child enshrined in Article 24 of the Charter and to a high-level of consumer protection enshrined in Article 38 of the Charter;
1. This Directive lays down rules concerning the right to interpretation and translation in criminal proceedings and proceedings for the execution of a European arrest warrant.
2. The right referred to in paragraph 1 shall apply to persons from the time that they are made aware by the competent authorities of a Member State, by official notification or otherwise, that they are suspected or accused of having committed a criminal offence until the conclusion of the proceedings, which is understood to mean the final determination of the question whether they have committed the offence, including, where applicable, sentencing and the resolution of any appeal.
3. Where the law of a Member State provides for the imposition of a sanction regarding minor offences by an authority other than a court having jurisdiction in criminal matters, and the imposition of such a sanction may be appealed to such a court, this Directive shall apply only to the proceedings before that court following such an appeal.
4. This Directive does not affect national law concerning the presence of legal counsel during any stage of the criminal proceedings, nor does it affect national law concerning the right of access of a suspected or accused person to documents in criminal proceedings.
