"Mutual confidence: towards a European judicial culture"

In 2009-2010 the working group on Mutual Confidence continued the work done in the previous year on training and evaluation. The Mutual Confidence report and recommendations 2009-2010 focuses in detail on the topic of evaluation and the responsibility of the European Judiciary to develop a set of representative minimum standards for the Justice Sector. The report also calls for a European attitude of Judges.

The issue of training of Judges in European Law is discussed in detail and best practices on the dissemination of EU knowledge on a national level are provided in the report. Finally, on a European level, the report calls for the development of judicial networks that focus on improving mutual understanding of specialist issues and problems by sharing and exchaniging experiences.
