Proposition de loi modifiant le Code d'instruction criminelle afin d'aligner l'inscription des décisions de juridictions étrangères dans l'extrait du Casier judiciaire sur l'inscription des décisions de juridictions belges.
This is a Belgian bill (proposition de loi) in the Chamber of Representatives that would amend the Belgian Code of Criminal Investigation. Its aim is to make the recording of criminal decisions issued by foreign courts in the criminal record extract (casier judiciaire) follow the same rules that apply to decisions issued by Belgian courts. The subject sits within the judicial system and concerns how criminal history is documented and disclosed. The change would mainly affect individuals with foreign court convictions who are recorded in Belgian criminal record extracts, as well as the authorities and employers or institutions that rely on those extracts. Based on the metadata alone, the precise details of the treatment of foreign and domestic decisions are not visible.
