Tomorrow 25 November from 16:30-18:00 CET, the European Implementation Network (EIN) and Democracy Reporting International (DRI) will launch the new 2025 edition of the report 'Justice Delayed, Justice Denied - The non-implementation of European Courts’ Judgments and the Rule of Law in the EU'. The report addresses the issue of non-implementation of judgments of the European Court of Human Rights and the Court of Justice of the European Union in EU Member States, and contains recommendations for actions by the EU.
This is the description of the event:
'With 650 ECTHR judgments and 133 CJEU rulings still pending implementation at the start of 2025, the report shows that this growing trend of non-compliance and lengthy delays if often coupled with open contestation of decisions by political authorities and, and, at times, by the highest national courts, undermining the authority and potential effectiveness of these supra-national institutions.
More critically, each case of non-implementation results in prolonged rule of law and human rights violations, with far-reaching consequences for individuals and communities who are denied timely justice. Certain countries consistently struggle with compliance across both courts, and there are several indications of worsening implementation trends overall.
The event, which will take place alongside the European Parliament plenary, will feature presentations by Ioulietta Bisiouli, Director of EIN, and Dr. Nino Tsereteli, Programme Coordinator at DRI, followed by an institutional feedback from MEP Daniel Freund and an open exchange with the audience.'
