CHAIR OF THE COUNCIL OF MINISTERS

Proposal for Resolution No 10 /XII

The Portuguese Republic and the Republic of Peru have been promoting a deepening

of its bilateral relations, which translates into the intensification of dialogue in various areas of

common interest.

The Treaty on the Transfer of Condensed Persons between the Portuguese Republic and the

Republic of Peru, signed in Lima, on April 7, 2010, is yet another example of this

cooperation, with the object of the promotion and deepening of cooperation between

Portugal and Peru in the area of Justice.

The Treaty makes it possible to transfer a convicted person on the territory of one of the

countries for the territory of the other for it to comply, or continue to comply, a

sentencing that was imposed on him by sentence carried forward on trial, contributing, by this

via, for the social reinsertion of the convicted persons in the State of origin. The request for

transfer can be requested either by any of the countries or by the person themselves

doomed, thus allowing nationals of both countries to comply with the sentence

deprivation of freedom in its originating social environment.

It is thus of particular importance to proceed with the approval of the treaty.

Thus:

Under the terms of the paragraph d) of Article 197 (1) of the Constitution, the Government presents to the

Assembly of the Republic the following proposal for a Resolution:

CHAIR OF THE COUNCIL OF MINISTERS

Approve the Treaty on the Transfer of Sentenced Persons between the Republic

certified versions in the Portuguese and castelian languages, it publishes in attachment.
