Publisher's Synopsis
This Hungarian EPPO/OLAF volume focuses on criminal and administrative investigations in Hungary. As Hungary is a non-participating Member State to the EPPO, the EPPO chapter of this book discusses the relations between the EPPO countries and the Hungarian Prosecution Offices under a Working Arrangement as well as the rules of the Hungarian Prosecution Offices when investigating EU fraud and financial crime offences. It covers the material collected, co-operation with the Hungarian judicial authorities, criminal investigations into PIF-offences and compliance with the EPPO-Regulation. This volume also deals with the impact of OLAF investigations in Hungary and their significance for the Hungarian criminal justice system. Prof Dr Krisztina Karsai has acted as the publication's national expert. While written in English, the volume includes footnotes that reproduce the original Hungarian legislation in the local language. Easily navigable with the help of visual symbols, it is designed as a quick reference tool for academics, students, practitioners and other interested readers.
