2 Information on national selection procedure for the position of a judge of the European Court of Human Rights

The independent commission was set up by Order of the Minister of Justice No. 11884/2018 of 28 November 2018, published in the Official Journal, II Series, No. 238, of 11 December 2018. It comprises the following members:

António Silva Henriques Gaspar, former Counsellor Judge and former President of the Supreme Court of Justice, appointed by the Minister of Justice, who chairs the Commission;

José António Henriques dos Santos Cabral, Counselor Judge, President of the Criminal Section of the Supreme Court of Justice, appointed by the High Council of the Judiciary;

Rui Manuel Gens de Moura Ramos, Professor at the Law Faculty of the University of Coimbra, former judge and president of the Constitutional Court, appointed by the High Council of the Administrative and Tax Courts;

José Manuel dos Santos Pais, Deputy General Prosecutor at the Constitutional Court and member of the United Nations Human Rights Committee, appointed by the Office of the Public Prosecutor;

Paulo Saragoça da Matta, University Lecturer and Lawyer, president of the Human Rights and Social Environmental Affairs Committee of the Bar Association, appointed by the Bar Association.

Once the Notice No. 2048/2019 of 18 January 2019 was published (on 6 February 2019, in the Official Journal, II series, no. 26), 24 applications were submitted within the deadline.

The Commission has verified the admissibility and has assessed the applications through the curriculum evaluation method, bearing in mind the requirements set out in Article 21 of the European Convention on Human Rights.

In the identification and definition of the evaluation criteria, the Commission had, as reference, the qualifications set forth in Article 21 of the European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR) related to the election of a Judge to ECHR and has interpreted and incorporated the requirements and conditions set out in Notice No. 2048/2019 (applications to join the list of three candidates to be submitted by the Portuguese Government to the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe), in accordance with the Resolution of the Committee of Ministers (CM) of the Council of Europe, of 29 March 2012 [CM(2012) 40-final].

The Commission has considered as fundamental criterion, and in accordance with the provisions of the above-mentioned ECHR and the Resolution of the CM referred to above, that the persons concerned have to fulfil the conditions laid down for the performance of the highest judicial office or be jurisconsults of recognised competence.

In integrating this criterion, the Commission has decided to take into account, as a principle, the requirements and conditions laid down in the national system of access to its highest courts, so that decisions of the European Court could be recognised and respected, in particular by its peers, at national level (Brussels High-Level Conference of 26-27 March 2015).

The Commission has also decided to consider, as a criterion for evaluating the practical legal experience of the applicants, the level and proximity of the candidates to national and international human rights protection systems, in particular to the ECHR system and, in order to include the category of jurisconsult of recognised competence, the fact that the candidate is a clearly and prominently known jurisconsult among his or her peers and in the legal community in general, being capable of deep, thorough and appropriate intellectual reflection in the various fields of law, in particular as regards national and international human rights protection, revealed through teaching, theoretical reflection and/or consistent and recognised legal practice.

Bearing in mind the objectives of this selection procedure and the number of parties concerned, the Commission has also decided to evaluate them at two points in time: a first evaluation, exclusively based on the CVs, to decide on the inclusion of each curriculum in the qualification criteria, deemed necessary for the candidates to be able to join the list of three names to be submitted for election by the Portuguese Government, not accepting those candidates who did not meet these conditions. Second, to accept those candidates who hold the required qualifications to join the aforesaid list, and to invite each of them to a hearing. This would contribute, on the one hand, to the selection, by the Commission, of the list of candidates and, on the other, to bring as much as possible the procedure used by the Independent Commission in line with the hearing to be held before the competent Committee of the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe.

The Commission has accordingly assessed each of the applicants’ curriculum vitae, in accordance with the criteria it has defined, and has decided, with the approval of all its members, that 17 candidates, in spite of the significant merits which the Commission has recognised to all of them, do not yet meet the conditions set out above for accessing the Highest Judicial Office, and cannot therefore be considered for the purpose of selection to the office of Judge to ECHR for which they have expressed their interest, or that they have not shown that they are in a position to be recognised as jurisconsults, clearly and prominently known among their peers and in the legal community in general, being capable of deep, thorough and appropriate intellectual reflection in the various fields of law, in particular as regards national and international human rights protection, revealed through teaching, theoretical reflection and/or consistent and recognised legal practice.

One of the candidates did also not meet the age requirement, pursuant to the above-mentioned Resolution of the Council of Europe’s Committee of Ministers (CM (2012) 40 final), point II, 5 or Article 2 (1) of Protocol No. 15 (already ratified by Portugal).

The Commission took the view that, in principle, seven candidates met the conditions and criteria required for joining the above-mentioned list of names and decided, accordingly, to invite each of them to the hearing provided for by Notice No. 2048/2019 (on the terms of the public call for expression of interest in the election to the office of Portuguese judge to ECHR).

The hearing of each candidate started with an introduction by the President of the Commission, with general indications as to the purpose and subject matter of the hearing. It was followed by a dialogue, which allowed each of the parties concerned to present the grounds of his or her interest for the office of judge to ECHR, as well as the reasons why, in their own assessment, they consider that the necessary requirements are in line with the office they are applying for. Given the specificity of the Court, it was carried out as follows: general considerations on the curriculum, with comments from each interested party; the functioning of the Court; its organisation and nature; the workload of the judges and the requirements of the office; dialogue on matters and competences; principles, methodologies and interpretation; proximity and knowledge of the ECHR case law.

The hearing of each candidate took place partly in French or English or in both languages.

Once the hearings were over, the Commission discussed and assessed the attitude, the expression, communication and substance of the speech of each party concerned, both in the context of the dialogue on the specific nature and organisation of the Court, in particular its requirements and the working methods, and the curricular self-assessment of the person concerned on the adequacy of their own competences to perform the office of judge to ECHR, the practical legal experience, particularly of a judicial or legal nature, the familiarity and knowledge of each person concerned with the European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR), as well as with the Court’s case law, principles, methodology and decision criteria.

Each member of the Commission has expressed the meaning of his/her assessment in relation to the parties concerned, who participated in the hearing, on the basis of the evaluation criteria previously defined, of all the curricular elements annexed and of the conclusions drawn from the same hearing. Finally, by a majority, the Commission has decided to establish the following list of three names, in alphabetic order of the first names, to submit to the Minister of Justice, in order to enable the Portuguese government to exercise political jurisdiction over the application of the Portuguese judge to ECHR:

• Ana Maria Guerra Martins;
• José António Mouraz Lopes;
• José Luís Lopes da Mota.
