Updating EU judicial cooperation will be among the priorities of the Spain-Belgium-Hungary trio presidency, representatives of the three countries announced at a press conference in Brussels on Tuesday.
Other priorities will include implementing the EU’s Stockholm programme and reviewing community legislation, Spanish Justice Minister Francisco Caamano Dominguez, Sefaan De Clerck, his Belgian counterpart, and Hungary’s deputy Justice Minister Judit Fazekas said after a meeting of European justice ministers.
Among Hungary’s priorities, Fazekas mentioned traffic safety, data protection as well as development of electronic tools to support the judicial system.
Justice Minister Tibor Draskovics said earlier that issues concerning the Roma minority and improving people’s access to legal services were also a top priority for Hungary.
