abstract
The need to prosecute perpetrators of crime affecting the financial interests of the European Communities more effectively has Jed the Commission, Parliament to set up special experts’ teams for analysing possibilities of common rules for investigation, prosecution and trial in cases detrimental to financial interests of European Communities. Corpus Juris and Corpus Juris 2000 proposed establishing a European Public Prosecutor with responsibility in this field to remedy the fragmentary nature of the European criminal-law enforcement area. The follow-up document – Green Paper on criminal-law protection of the financial interests of the Community and the establishment of a European Prosecutor, which was adopted on 11 December 2001, had two objectives: to clarify ideas and throw up options and preferences regarding ways of implementing the original proposal, and to open the debate to all circles concerned on the eve of enlargement and in view of the forthcoming constitutional review of the Treaties. The European Constitution and Lisbon Treaty propose establishing the European Public Prosecutor from European Office for Judicial Co-operation (Eurojust) as a new level of international co-operation in judicial matters concerning of the protection of the financial interests of EC.
