Summary/Abstract: Among numerous other international and european legal instruments, Directive 2016/800 enshrines key principles in juvenile justice and provides guarantees in order to defend the rights of children who are suspects or accused persons in criminal proceedings. Most of the procedural safeguards of the directive are established in the domestic criminal law, but there are also provisions that need improvement or change by legislative means or better enforcement in national case-law once the directive is implemented.
