NATIONAL LEGAL FRAMEWORK CONCERNING THE APPLICATION OF CROSS-BORDER INSTRUMENTS
TO PERSONS WITH INTELLECTUAL AND/OR PSYCHOSOCIAL DISABILITIES IN LAW AND PRACTICE
30
Lithuania (with the exception of arrest, house arrest and
the obligation to be separated from the injured party),
which shall be in the closest correspondence to, but not
be more severe than, the obligations and/or prohibitions
referred to in the decision on the pre-trial detention
measure issued by a competent authority in another
European Union Member State.
The grounds for refusing to recognise a decision of a
competent authority of another Member State of the
European Union on a supervision measure do not include
a reference to a violation of fundamental human rights.
There are no publicly available statistics on the use of the
European Supervision Order in Lithuania.
During the research interviews with practicing legal
experts, it was noted that the ESO is a "languishing"
norm, which is applied extremely rarely, and no practical
examples could be provided.
„While there are hundreds of EAWs
issued and executed, there are only
a handful of European Supervision
Orders issued and executed. It is almost
an inapplicable document in practice.
Although it should be the alternative that
ensures that people do not spend time in
detention unnecessarily.“26
