Onder 3.4 Parket bij de Hoge Raad 14 juni 2018

Een alinea uit Parket bij de Hoge Raad 14 juni 2018, ECLI:NL:PHR:2018:688.

“The Court has drawn a distinction between measures constituting a "penalty" and measures relating to the "enforcement" or "implementation" of that penalty. Where the nature and purpose of a given measure concern remission of sentence or a change in the procedure for conditional release, that measure is not an integral part of the "punishment" within the meaning of Article 7 (for the granting of sentence remission, see Grava v. Italy, § 49; and Kafkaris v. Cyprus [GC], § 151; for a legislative amendment on the conditions for release on parole, see Hogben v. the United Kingdom, Commission decision; and Uttley v. the United Kingdom (dec.); for differences between the regulations on release on parole in various cases of transfer of sentenced persons, see Ciok v. Poland (dec.), §§ 33-34). Issues relating to release policies, the manner of their implementation and the reasoning behind them fall within the power of the member States to determine their own criminal policy (Kafkaris v. Cyprus [GC], § 151). Nor does a failure to apply amnesty legislation to a conviction which has already become final fall within the ambit of Article 7 (Montcornet de Caumont v. France (dec.)).”
