The European Parliament voted to endorse the report by Mrs Margot KESSLER (PES, D) which aims to extend the existing judical network in criminal matters to civil and commercial law. Parliament's resolution takes the view that the proposal will be an opportunity to simplify judicial cooperation between the Member States and to facilitate cross-border legal procedures.

It should also be added that the Commission was called upon to come forward with proposals on setting up a Centralised Electronic Casebook and Judgement Registry Database.�
