National criteria regarding European Public Prosecutor’s Office prosecutors and delegate prosecutors

Question for written answer  E-002016/2021
to the Commission
Rule 138
Sophia in 't Veld (Renew)

Prosecutors in the European Public Prosecutor’s Office (EPPO) must be strictly independent. In this respect, concerns have been raised about the legislative amendment that has recently been adopted at the proposal of the Slovenian Government, setting requirements for linguistic skills that go beyond those of the EPPO itself.

This raises a question about the right of Member States to adopt criteria that deviate from the EPPO rules and might even risk interfering with the appointment procedure.
