A practical tool for legal professionals who wish to strengthen their skills in applying the European Convention on Human Rights and the case law of the European Court of Human Rights in their daily work This is the second and expanded edition of a handbook intended to assist judges, lawyers and prosecutors in taking account of the requirements of the European Convention on Human Rights and its Protocols (“the European Convention”) – and more particularly of the case law of the European Court of Human Rights – when interpreting and applying codes of criminal procedure and comparable or related legislation. It does so by providing extracts from key rulings of the European Court and the former European Commission of Human Rights that have determined applications complaining about one or more violations of the European Convention in the course of the investigation, prosecution and trial of alleged offences, as well as in the course of appellate and various other proceedings linked to the criminal process.

This paper examines the legal and medical aspects of procuring and transferring natural human tissues and bodily substances relative to emerging tissue replacement technologies. It discusses the medical need for and the supply of human tissue and bodily substances and the emerging legal and ethical dilemmas provoked by demand and supply disequilibria; analyses the underlying ethical considerations of tissue procurement; examines existing law on the human body through the common, civil, and criminal law; examines the leading legal approaches to tissue transfer issues in foreign jurisdictions as well as legal issues presented by the international transfer of human therapeutic tissue and tissue replacement technology; and outlines arguments for and against major law reform options, proposing general principles and summarizing the recommendations.
