In 2002 the Nuffield Foundation made a grant to Justice for their work on the European arrest warrant. As part of this work, Justice held a seminar on 5 and 6 July, bringing together 122 lawyers, judges and academics from 22 European Union and accession countries to consider the proposals for a common EU Warrant of Arrest. One of the results of the conference will be the establishment of a network of people based around, but not limited to, the European sections of the International Commission of Jurists who will work together on minimum standards of safeguards in cross-border cases. Details of the conference can be obtained from the Justice website.
