Wijziging van het nieuwe Wetboek van Strafvordering (eerste aanvullingswet nieuw Wetboek van Strafvordering)
This is a Dutch national bill, submitted to the Tweede Kamer (House of Representatives), that amends the new Wetboek van Strafvordering, the Netherlands' Code of Criminal Procedure. The title indicates it is the first supplementary act to that new code, meaning it adjusts and fills in gaps in the rules governing criminal investigations, prosecutions and court procedures. Such changes shape how police, prosecutors and courts carry out criminal cases. The changes mainly affect criminal justice authorities such as the police, the Public Prosecution Service and the courts, as well as suspects, defendants, victims and witnesses involved in criminal proceedings. The exact provisions cannot be determined from the title alone. This summary is based on metadata only, not the full legislative text.
