Recommendations  CoE member States should stringently control the import, export, brokering and other transfer of electric shock projectile weapons firing individual projectiles, specifically intended for law enforcement purposes. The use of such weapons by law enforcement officials should be consistent with regional and international human rights standards, specifically the UN Basic Standards on the Use of Force and Firearms. In line with CPT recommendations, such devices should not be used in a prison or places of detention. Furthermore the use of such weapons in the “drive stun” mode (i.e. as direct contact electric shock weapons) should be prohibited.  CoE member States should prohibit the development, promotion, import, export, brokering and other transfer of electric shock projectile weapons firing multiple projectiles simultaneously. The use of such weapons by CoE law enforcement and prison officials should be prohibited, and all existing weapons should be removed and verifiably destroyed. 31
