Policy field(s)… Civil Justice / 18/07/2014 (Final consulta)
Who can reply to this consultation? All citizens, organisations and public authorities are welcome to contribute to this consultation
Period of consultation: From 15 April 2014 until 18 July 2014
Purpose of the consultation.
Disputes
on family matters have increased in the EU due to the growing mobility
of citizens and the rising number of international families, notably
families whose members are of different nationalities, live in different
EU countries or live in an EU country of which one or more of them are
not nationals.
The
Brussels IIa Regulation (hereafter "the Regulation") is the cornerstone
of European Union (hereafter "the EU") judicial cooperation in
matrimonial matters and matters of parental responsibility. The
Regulation applies since 1 March 2005 in all EU countries except
Denmark.
The
Regulation determinates in cross-border situations the responsible court
for spouses who want to divorce, separate or annul their marriage. In
relations between children and their parents, whether they are married
or not, the Regulation determines the responsible court to settle
parental responsibility disputes including custody and visiting rights,
primarily aiming at the protection of the best interests of the child.
In cases of cross-border parental child abduction the Regulation makes
available a procedure to return the child to the place of his or her
habitual residence.
In
addition, the Regulation prevents parallel proceedings before the courts
of different EU countries and aims at ensuring the free circulation of
judgments, authentic instruments or agreements, based on the mutual
trust among EU countries.
The
Commission has recently launched a review of the functioning of the
Regulation. To this end, it has published a report on its application.
The results of the present consultation will feed an overall assessment
of the instrument.Reference document: COUNCIL REGULATION (EC) No 2201/2003 of 27 November 2003 concerning jurisdiction and the recognition and enforcement of judgments in matrimonial matters and the matters of parental responsibility, repealing Regulation (EC) No 1347/2000
