Lord Carloway’s Review of Criminal Procedure

The motion

That the Parliament welcomes Lord Carloway’s detailed and authoritative report on aspects of criminal procedure in Scotland; believes that his recommendations provide a historic basis on which to remodel the Scots criminal justice system; welcomes the report's focus on delivering a system that will ensure the effective, efficient and fair investigation and prosecution of crime, and supports the Scottish Government’s intention to seek an early opportunity to legislate following an appropriate period of time for reflection, analysis and debate, which should involve detailed consideration of links to wider aspects of criminal procedure.
