Green Paper on Improving the Efficiency of the Enforcement of Judgments in the European Union: the Attachment of Bank Accounts
-
Response from the United Kingdom
Abstract
In October 2006, the European Commission has launched a Green Paper on the attachment of bank accounts in order to improve the efficiency of crossborder enforcement of judgements within the EU. By end of March 2007, the Member States had the opportunity to give opinions and respond to the questions put forward in the Green Paper. The seizing of bank accounts is an issue that is to great extent overarched by the differences of the lex rei sitae and the lex fori between the legal families within the EU. The ECFR has decided to publish three opinions by influential Member States to convey an encompassing overview of the issues to be addressed by future harmonisation measures.
