Statements provided for in Article 31(2) of Council Framework Decision 2002/584/JHA of 13 June 2002 on the European arrest warrant and the surrender procedure between Member States(1)

Statement by Denmark

In most respects, the uniform legislation in force between the Nordic States allows the prescriptions of the Framework Decision to be extended and enlarged and helps to simplify and facilitate further the procedures of surrender of persons who are the subject of European arrest warrants. Denmark, Finland and Sweden will therefore continue to apply the uniform legislation in force between them (in Denmark: the Nordic Extradition Act (Act No 27 of 3 February 1960 as amended by Act No 251 of 12 June 1975, Act No 433 of 31 May 2000 and Act No 378 of 6 June 2002)) in so far as it allows the prescriptions of the Framework Decision to be extended or enlarged and helps to simplify or facilitate further the procedures for surrender of persons who are the subject of European arrest warrants.

Statement by Finland

In most respects, the uniform legislation in force between the Nordic States allows the provisions of the Framework Decision to be extended and enlarged and helps to simplify and facilitate further the procedures of surrender of persons who are the subject of European arrest warrants. Denmark, Finland and Sweden will therefore continue to apply the uniform legislation in force between them (in Finland: the Nordic Extradition Act (270/1960)) in so far as it allows the prescription of the Framework Decision to be extended or enlarged and helps to simplify or facilitate further the procedures for surrender of persons who are the subject of European arrest warrants.

Statement by Sweden

In most respects, the uniform legislation in force between the Nordic States allows the prescriptions of the Framework Decision to be extended and enlarged and helps to simplify and facilitate further the procedures of surrender of persons who are the subject of European arrest warrants. Denmark, Finland and Sweden will therefore continue to apply the uniform legislation in force between them (in Sweden: the Act (1959:254) concerning extradition to Denmark, Finland, Iceland and Norway for criminal offences) in so far as it allows the prescriptions of the Framework Decision to be extended or enlarged and helps to simplify or facilitate further the procedures for surrender of persons who are the subject of European arrest warrants.
