At its 100th plenary meeting (30 May - 1 June 2023), the CDCJ adopted its report on the state of play and assessment of the implementation of the European Convention on Information on Foreign Law (ETS No. 62) and its additional protocol (ETS No. 97). This report reviews how the Convention and its Additional Protocol are used in practice within the different States parties. It highlights the considerable benefits from these texts but also their limits and possible avenues to further promote their implementation.
As a follow-up, the CDCJ decided to give priority to a dedicated webpage where supporting tools would be made available, such as a practical handbook, standard forms and an updated list of national contact points.
