In addition, the courts have attempted to ensure that the \nmost vulnerable defendants can participate more fully in criminal proceedings. \nHowever, confusing and complex legislation and practices are difficult to negotiate. \nThis book sets out the issues in a practical and immediate manner aimed at assisting \nthose involved in every aspect of criminal proceedings.\nThe evidence of children, persons with an intellectual disability and complainants \/ \nwitnesses involved in sexual or violent offences is facilitated through support \nmeasures such as video link, recorded testimony, intermediaries and screens. These \nmeasures are examined as well as recent case law and practices relating to \nprocedural aspects affecting the most vulnerable witnesses in the criminal justice \nsystem.\nWhether for the practitioner, academic or non-profit organisation, this book will be of \nuse in giving a practical overview and insight into the challenges and solutions \nrelating to the vulnerable witnesses and defendants in Ireland today.","brand":"Clarus Press Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47833163104600,"sku":"9781911611905","price":137.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/vulnerable-witnesses-and-defendants-in-criminal-proceedings","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
