International Criminal Court: Rules of Procedure and Evidence Implementation Considerations
The purpose of this supplement is to provide a very general overview of all the Rules of Procedure and Evidence, especially those that may be relevant to the implementation process, and how they all relate to the Rome Statute. Then these details can be taken into account at the same time as implementing legislation and procedures are being introduced, rather than causing unnecessary confusion at a later stage when the RPE come into force. Note that the Rules of Procedure and Evidence may be best suited to implementation as subordinate legislation, since they merely provide further details and clarifications of provisions in the Rome Statute. This supplement should be read in conjunction with the Rome Statute, the Manual for the Ratification and Implementation of the Rome Statute, and the Finalized draft text of the Rules of Procedure and Evidence themselves, and should not be taken as a complete guide to any of those documents.
