Question to the Attorney General:
To ask the Attorney General, what assessment he has made of the effectiveness of the use of the European Arrest Warrant.
This question was answered on 27th October 2016
The European Arrest Warrant (EAW) provides a basis for a swift and cost-efficient extradition process between EU Member States implementing the principle of ‘mutual recognition’ of judicial decisions. The UK continues to work closely with Member States to execute EAW following the referendum.
