Wijziging van het Wetboek van Strafvordering in verband met de introductie van de bevoegdheid tot het bevelen van een middelenonderzoek bij geweldplegers en enige daarmee samenhangende wijzigingen van de Wegenverkeerswet 1994

Stage submittedUpdated 5mo ago

This motion proposes amending the Code of Criminal Procedure to allow authorities to order drug and substance testing for perpetrators of violence. The goal is to better understand if substance abuse played a role in violent crimes to improve legal outcomes and rehabilitation. These changes primarily affect individuals accused of violent crimes and may involve related updates to the 1994 Road Traffic Act, potentially impacting drivers and law enforcement procedures.
