Ní dhéanann an Treoir seo difear do ghníomhartha dlí an Aontais maidir le fianaise, amhail Rialachán ó Pharlaimint na hEorpa agus ón gComhairle maidir le hOrdú Eorpach chun Fianaise a Thabhairt ar Aird agus maidir le hOrdú Eorpach um Chaomhnú i gcomhair fianaise leictreonach in imeachtaí coiriúla agus chun pianbhreitheanna coimeádta a fhorghníomhú tar éis imeachtaí coiriúla, Treoir 2014/41/AE ó Pharlaimint na hEorpa agus ón gComhairle agus Treoir ó Pharlaimint na hEorpa agus ón gComhairle lena leagtar síos rialacha comhchuibhithe maidir le bunaíochtaí ainmnithe a ainmniú agus ionadaithe dlíthiúla a cheapadh chun críche fianaise leictreonach a bhailiú in imeachtaí coiriúla ó Pharlaimint na hEorpa agus ón gComhairle.
This Directive does not affect Union legal acts on evidence, such as a Regulation of the European Parliament and of the Council on European Production and Preservation Orders for electronic evidence in criminal proceedings and for the execution of custodial sentences following criminal proceedings, Directive 2014/41/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council and a Directive of the European Parliament and of the Council laying down harmonised rules on the designation of designated establishments and the appointment of legal representatives for the purpose of gathering electronic evidence in criminal proceedings.

Tugadh chun suntais sa rún sin ó Pharlaimint na hEorpa freisin gur féidir leis an gcreat dlíthiúil ilroinnte atá ann faoi láthair dúshláin a chruthú do sholáthraithe seirbhíse atá ag iarraidh iarrataí ar fhorfheidhmiú an dlí a chomhlíonadh agus iarradh ar an gCoimisiún creat dlíthiúil Aontais a thíolacadh le haghaidh fianaise leictreonach lena ngabhann coimircí leordhóthanacha do chearta agus saoirsí na ndaoine uile lena mbaineann, agus ag an am céanna fáiltíodh roimh obair leanúnach an Choimisiúin ar ardán comhair ina mbeidh cainéal cumarsáide slán le haghaidh malartuithe digiteacha Orduithe Imscrúdaithe Eorpacha (EIOnna) le haghaidh fianaise leictreonach agus freagraí leictreonacha idir údaráis bhreithiúnacha an Aontais.
That resolution of the European Parliament also highlighted that the currently fragmented legal framework can create challenges for service providers seeking to comply with law enforcement requests and called on the Commission to put forward a Union legal framework for electronic evidence with sufficient safeguards for the rights and freedoms of all concerned, while welcoming the ongoing work of the Commission towards a cooperation platform with a secure communication channel for digital exchanges of European Investigation Orders (EIOs) for electronic evidence and replies between Union judicial authorities.

D’fhéadfadh constaicí den chineál sin a bheith ina réitigh atá deartha go náisiúnta, a sholáthar ar bhacainní amhail úsáid a bheith á baint as réimsí foirme lena n-éilítear uimhreacha teileafóin náisiúnta, réamhuimhir náisiúnta d’uimhreacha teileafóin, nó cóid phoist náisiúnta, córais nach nglacann le híocaíochtaí trasteorann nuair atáthar ag iarraidh táillí a íoc, an easpa mínithe mionsonraithe atá ar fáil i dteanga a thuigeann úsáideoirí trasteorann, an easpa deiseanna atá ann chun fianaise leictreonach ó údaráis atá lonnaithe i mBallstát eile a chur isteach, agus an glacadh íseal le modhanna ríomh-shainaitheantais arna n-eisiúint i mBallstáit eile.
Such obstacles might consist of nationally-designed solutions, such as using form fields that require national phone numbers, national prefixes for phone numbers or national postal codes, payment of fees that can only be done through systems which do not provide for cross-border payments, the lack of detailed explanations in a language understood by cross-border users, the lack of possibilities to submit electronic evidence from authorities located in another Member State and the lack of acceptance of electronic means of identification issued in other Member States.

Maidir le húsáideoirí nach gcónaíonn i mBallstát nó nach bhfuil bunaithe i mBallstát, ba cheart dóibh bheith in ann nósanna imeachta ar líne a rochtain agus a chur i gcrích gan aon bhacainní amhail réimsí foirme lena néilítear uimhreacha teileafóin náisiúnta nó cóid phoist náisiúnta, córais nach nglacann le híocaíochtaí trasteorann nuair atáthar ag iarraidh táillí a íoc, an easpa mínithe mionsonraithe atá ar fáil i dteanga eile seachas an teanga náisiúnta nó na teangacha náisiúnta, an easpa deiseanna atá ann chun fianaise leictreonach ó údaráis atá lonnaithe i mBallstát eile a chur isteach, agus an glacadh íseal le modhanna ríomh-shainaitheantais arna neisiúint i mBallstáit eile.
It should be possible for users not residing in or established in a Member State to access and complete online procedures without obstacles such as form fields that require national phone numbers or national postal codes, payment of fees that can only be done through systems which do not provide for cross-border payments, lack of detailed explanations in another language other than the national language or languages, lack of possibilities to submit electronic evidence from authorities located in another Member State and lack of acceptance of electronic means of identification issued in other Member States.

Chuir an Coimisiún tograí reachtacha isteach freisin le haghaidh Rialachán maidir le hOrduithe Eorpacha chun Fianaise a Thabhairt ar Aird agus Orduithe Caomhnaithe Eorpacha i gcomhair fianaise leictreonach in ábhair choiriúla, agus le haghaidh Treoir lena leagtar síos rialacha comhchuibhithe maidir le hionadaithe dlíthiúla a cheapadh chun críche fianaise a bhailiú in imeachtaí coiriúla, lenar tugadh isteach Orduithe Táirgthe agus Caomhnaithe Eorpacha ceangailteacha trasteorann atá le díriú go díreach ar ionadaí de chuid soláthraí seirbhíse i mBallstát eile.
The Commission has also submitted legislative proposals for a Regulation on European Production and Preservation Orders for electronic evidence in criminal matters and a Directive laying down harmonised rules on the appointment of legal representatives for the purpose of gathering evidence in criminal proceedings, introducing binding cross-border European Production and Preservation Orders to be addressed directly to a representative of a service provider in another Member State.

Mar sin féin, cuirfidh na Ballstáit san áireamh gur cheart an Scáth-Chomhaontú a chomhlánú le coimircí breise lena gcuirtear san áireamh na ceanglais uathúla a bhaineann le fianaise leictreonach a bheith á haistriú go díreach ag soláthraithe seirbhíse seachas idir údaráis mar a fhoráiltear dó sin faoin bPrótacal.
However, Member States shall take into account that the Umbrella Agreement should be complemented with additional safeguards that take into account the unique requirements of the transfer of electronic evidence directly by service providers rather than between authorities as provided for under the Protocol.

Go bhforáiltear leis an gCoinbhinsiún do bhearta nós imeachta coiriúla lena gceadaítear do na húdaráis imscrúdú éifeachtach a dhéanamh ar chibearchoireacht, lena bhféadfaí a áireamh, ar choinníoll go bhforáiltear do choimircí leordhóthanacha, bearta chun fianaise leictreonach ar aon chion coiriúil a chaomhnú nó a fháil mar chuid d’imscrúdú coiriúil nó d’imeacht coiriúil agus, i gcás, ina theannta sin, ina bhfuil gá léirithe agus breisluach, bearta chun fáltais ó choireanna den sórt sin a reo agus a choigistiú, agus aird chuí á tabhairt ar phrionsabail na comhréireachta, na dlíthiúlachta agus an éigin, ar chosaint na gceart a bhaineann le hurraim do phríobháideachas agus ar chosaint sonraí pearsanta.
The Convention provides for procedural criminal measures that allow authorities to investigate cybercrimes effectively, which could, providing that sufficient safeguards are provided for, include measures to preserve or obtain electronic evidence of any criminal offence as part of a criminal investigation or proceeding and, where there is, in addition, a demonstrated need and added value, measures to freeze and confiscate proceeds of such crimes, taking due account of the proportionality, legality and necessity principles, the protection of the rights concerning the respect for privacy and the protection of personal data.

Go gcuireann an Coinbhinsiún bonn ar fáil maidir le bearta forbartha acmhainneachta deonacha chun tacú le tíortha ina gcumas imscrúduithe agus imeachtaí éifeachtacha cibearchoireachta a dhéanamh agus chun fianaise leictreonach haghaidh imscrúduithe agus imeachtaí cionta eile a fháil, lena n-áirítear trí bhíthin cúnamh teicniúil agus oiliúint.
The Convention provides a basis for voluntary capacity building measures to support countries in their ability to conduct effective cybercrime investigations and proceedings and to obtain electronic evidence for investigations and proceedings of other offences, including by means of technical assistance and training.

Ba cheart an Rialachán seo, áfach, a bheith gan dochar do dhlí an Aontais i réimse an chomhair bhreithiúnaigh in ábhair shibhialta nó choiriúla, lena n-áirítear Rialachán (AE) Uimh. 1215/2012 agus Rialachán maidir le hOrduithe Eorpacha chun fianaise a thabhairt ar aird agus Orduithe Caomhnaithe Eorpacha i gcomhair fianaise leictreonach in ábhair choiriúla], ná don dlí náisiúnta nós imeachta choiriúil nó shibhialta.
However, this Regulation should be without prejudice to Union law in the field of judicial cooperation in civil or criminal matters, including Regulation (EU) No 1215/2012 and a Regulation on European production and preservation orders for electronic evidence in criminal matters, and to national criminal or civil procedural law.

Chuir an Coimisiún tograí reachtacha isteach freisin le haghaidh Rialachán maidir le hOrduithe Eorpacha chun Fianaise a Thabhairt ar Aird agus Orduithe Caomhnaithe Eorpacha i gcomhair fianaise leictreonach in ábhair choiriúla, agus le haghaidh Treoir lena leagtar síos rialacha comhchuibhithe maidir le hionadaithe dlíthiúla a cheapadh chun críche fianaise a bhailiú in imeachtaí coiriúla, lenar tugadh isteach Orduithe Táirgthe agus Caomhnaithe Eorpacha ceangailteacha trasteorann atá le díriú go díreach ar ionadaí de chuid soláthraí seirbhíse i mBallstát eile.
The Commission also submitted legislative proposals for a Regulation on European Production and Preservation Orders for electronic evidence in criminal matters and for a Directive laying down harmonised rules on the appointment of legal representatives for the purpose of gathering evidence in criminal proceedings, introducing binding cross-border European Production and Preservation Orders to be addressed directly to a representative of a service provider in another Member State.

Mar sin féin, cuirfidh na Ballstáit san áireamh gur cheart an Scáth-Chomhaontú a chomhlánú le coimircí breise lena gcuirtear san áireamh na ceanglais uathúla a bhaineann le fianaise leictreonach a bheith á haistriú go díreach ag soláthraithe seirbhíse seachas idir údaráis mar a fhoráiltear dó sin faoin bPrótacal.
However, Member States shall take into account that the Umbrella Agreement should be complemented with additional safeguards that take into account the unique requirements of the transfer of electronic evidence directly by service providers rather than between authorities as provided for under the Protocol.
#2805240
In éagmais cur chuige uile-Aontais, tá riosca ann go ndéanfaidh Ballstáit iarracht réiteach a fháil ar na heasnaimh atá ann cheana i dtaca le fianaise leictreonach a bhailiú in imeachtaí coiriúla trí oibleagáidí neamhionanna náisiúnta a fhorchur.
There is a risk that, in the absence of a Union-wide approach, Member States will try to overcome existing shortcomings related to gathering electronic evidence in criminal proceedings by imposing disparate national obligations.
#2805248
Trí rialacha comhchuibhithe a leagan amach maidir le bunaíochtaí ainmnithe a ainmniú agus ionadaithe dlíthiúla soláthraithe seirbhísí áirithe san Aontas a cheapadh chun cinntí agus orduithe arna n-eisiúint ag údaráis inniúla na mBallstát a fháil, a chomhlíonadh agus a fhorfheidhmiú, chun críoch fianaise leictreonach a bhailiú in imeachtaí coiriúla, ba cheart na bacainní atá ann faoi láthair ar shaorsholáthar seirbhísí a bhaint, agus ba cheart cosc a chur le haon chur chuige éagsúil náisiúnta a bheith á fhorchur ina leith sin amach anseo.
By setting out harmonised rules on the designation of designated establishments and the appointment of legal representatives of certain service providers in the Union for receipt of, compliance with and enforcement of decisions and orders issued by competent authorities of the Member States, for the purposes of gathering electronic evidence in criminal proceedings, the existing obstacles to the free provision of services should be removed, and the imposition of divergent national approaches in that regard, in the future, should be prevented.
#2805253
Ba cheart na bunaíochtaí ainmnithe agus na hionadaithe dlíthiúla dá bhforáiltear sa Treoir seo fónamh mar sheolaithe le haghaidh cinntí agus orduithe chun críche fianaise leictreonach a bhailiú ar bhonn Rialachán (AE) 2023/1543 ó Pharlaimint na hEorpa agus ón gComhairle, Threoir 2014/41/AE ó Pharlaimint na hEorpa agus ón gComhairle agus an Choinbhinsiúin arna bhunú ag an gComhairle i gcomhréir le hAirteagal 34 den Chonradh ar an Aontas Eorpach, um Chúnamh Frithpháirteach in Ábhair Choiriúla idir Ballstáit an Aontais Eorpaigh, lena n-áirítear i gcás ina ndéantar na cinntí agus na horduithe sin a tharchur i bhfoirm deimhnithe.
The designated establishments and legal representatives provided for in this Directive should serve as addressees for decisions and orders for the purpose of gathering electronic evidence on the basis of Regulation (EU) 2023/1543 of the European Parliament and of the Council, of Directive 2014/41/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council and of the Convention established by the Council in accordance with Article 34 of the Treaty on the European Union, on Mutual Assistance in Criminal Matters between Member States of the European Union, including where those decisions and orders are transmitted in the form of a certificate.
#2805256
Maidir le cinntí agus orduithe chun críche fianaise leictreonach a bhailiú ar bhonn an dlí náisiúnta, ba cheart na Ballstáit a bheith in ann iad a dhíriú ar dhuine nádúrtha nó dlítheanach atá ag gníomhú mar ionadaí dlíthiúil nó mar bhunaíocht ainmnithe soláthraí seirbhíse ar a gcríoch.
Member States should also be able to address decisions and orders for the purpose of gathering electronic evidence on the basis of national law to a natural or legal person acting as legal representative or designated establishment of a service provider on their territory.
#2805261
Chun críche fianaise leictreonach a bhailiú in imeachtaí coiriúla, ba cheart na Ballstáit a bheith fós in ann dul i dteagmháil le soláthraithe seirbhíse atá bunaithe ar a gcríoch i gcásanna nach mbaineann ach leis an tír sin i gcomhréir le dlí an Aontais agus a ndlí náisiúnta faoi seach.
For the purpose of gathering electronic evidence in criminal proceedings, Member States should be able to continue addressing service providers established on their territory for purely domestic situations in accordance with Union law and their respective national law.
#2805328
Ós rud é nach féidir leis na Ballstáit cuspóir na Treorach seo, eadhon deireadh a chur le bacainní ar shaorsholáthar seirbhísí faoi chuimsiú fianaise leictreonach a bhailiú in imeachtaí coiriúla, a ghnóthú go leordhóthanach ach, de bharr gur seirbhísí gan teorainneacha iad na seirbhísí sin, gur fearr is féidir iad a ghnóthú ar leibhéal an Aontais, féadfaidh an tAontas bearta a ghlacadh, i gcomhréir le prionsabal na coimhdeachta a leagtar amach in Airteagal 5 den Chonradh ar an Aontas Eorpach.
Since the objective of this Directive, namely to remove obstacles to the free provision of services in the framework of gathering electronic evidence in criminal proceedings, cannot be sufficiently achieved by the Member States, but can rather, by reason of the borderless nature of such services, be better achieved at Union level, the Union may adopt measures, in accordance with the principle of subsidiarity as set out in Article 5 of the Treaty on European Union.
#2805338
Tá feidhm ag an Treoir seo i leith cinntí agus orduithe chun críche fianaise leictreonach a bhailiú ar bhonn Rialachán (AE) 2023/1543, Threoir 2014/41/AE agus an Choinbhinsiúin arna bhunú ag an gComhairle i gcomhréir le hAirteagal 34 den Chonradh ar an Aontas Eorpach, um Chúnamh Frithpháirteach in Ábhair Choiriúla idir Ballstáit an Aontais Eorpaigh.
This Directive applies to decisions and orders for the purpose of gathering electronic evidence on the basis of Regulation (EU) 2023/1543, Directive 2014/41/EU and of the Convention established by the Council in accordance with Article 34 of the Treaty on European Union, on Mutual Assistance in Criminal Matters between Member States of the Union.
#2805339
Tá feidhm ag an Treoir seo freisin i leith cinntí agus orduithe chun críche fianaise leictreonach a bhailiú ar bhonn an dlí náisiúnta a dhíríonn Ballstát ar dhuine nádúrtha nó dlítheanach atá ag gníomhú mar ionadaí dlíthiúil nó mar bhunaíocht ainmnithe de chuid soláthraí seirbhíse ar chríoch an Bhallstáit sin.
This Directive equally applies to decisions and orders for the purpose of gathering electronic evidence on the basis of national law addressed by a Member State to a natural or legal person acting as legal representative or designated establishment of a service provider on the territory of that Member State.
#2805340
Tá an Treoir seo gan dochar do na cumhachtaí atá ag na húdaráis náisiúnta i gcomhréir le dlí an Aontais agus leis an dlí náisiúnta chun dul i dteagmháil le soláthraithe seirbhíse atá bunaithe ar a gcríoch go díreach, chun chríoch fianaise leictreonach in imeachtaí coiriúla a bhailiú.
This Directive is without prejudice to the powers of national authorities in accordance with Union and national law to address service providers established on their territory directly, for the purposes of gathering electronic evidence in criminal proceedings.

#2870668
Is riachtanach iad sásraí éifeachtacha chun fianaise leictreonach a fháil i dtaca le coiriúlacht a chomhrac, agus ba cheart sásraí den sórt sin a bheith faoi réir coinníollacha agus coimircí lena áirithiú go bhfuil siad ag comhlíonadh cearta bunúsacha agus prionsabail a aithnítear in Airteagal 6 den Chonradh ar an Aontas Eorpach (CAE) agus i gCairt um Chearta Bunúsacha an Aontais Eorpaigh (‘an Chairt’) go hiomlán, go háirithe prionsabail an riachtanais agus na comhréireachta, agus na prionsabail a bhaineann le próiseas cuí, cosaint na príobháideachta agus sonraí pearsanta agus rúndacht na cumarsáide.
Effective mechanisms to obtain electronic evidence are essential to combat crime, and such mechanisms should be subject to conditions and safeguards to ensure full compliance with fundamental rights and principles recognised in Article 6 of the Treaty on European Union (TEU) and the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union (the ‘Charter’), in particular the principles of necessity and proportionality, due process, protection of privacy and personal data and confidentiality of communications.

Sa Ráiteas Comhpháirteach ó na hAirí Dlí agus Cirt agus ó na hAirí Gnóthaí Baile agus ó ionadaithe institiúidí an Aontais an 24 Márta 2016 maidir leis na hionsaithe sceimhlitheoireachta sa Bhruiséil leagadh béim ar an ngá a bhí, mar ábhar tosaíochta, le fianaise leictreonach a chaomhnú agus a bhailiú níos gasta agus níos éifeachtaí agus chun bearta nithiúla a shainaithint chuige sin.
The Joint Statement of the Ministers of Justice and Home Affairs and representatives of the Union institutions of 24 March 2016 on the terrorist attacks in Brussels stressed the need, as a matter of priority, to secure and obtain more quickly and effectively digital evidence and to identify concrete measures to do so.
#2870670
Leagadh béim i gconclúidí na Comhairle an 9 Meitheamh 2016 ar an méadú atá tagtha ar an tábhacht a bhaineann le fianaise leictreonach in imeachtaí coiriúla, agus ar an tábhacht a bhaineann leis an gcibearspás a chosaint ó mhí-úsáid agus ó ghníomhaíochtaí coiriúla ar mhaithe le leas an gheilleagair agus na sochaí agus dá bhrí sin, is gá go mbeadh uirlisí éifeachtacha ag údaráis forfheidhmithe dlí agus ag údaráis bhreithiúnacha chun gníomhartha coiriúla a bhaineann leis an gcibearspás a imscrúdú agus a ionchúiseamh.
The Council conclusions of 9 June 2016 stressed the increasing importance of electronic evidence in criminal proceedings, and the importance of protecting cyberspace from abuse and criminal activities for the benefit of economies and societies, and therefore the need for law enforcement authorities and judicial authorities to have effective tools to investigate and prosecute criminal acts related to cyberspace.
#2870673
Sa rún ó Pharlaimint na hEorpa an 3 Deireadh Fómhair 2017 maidir leis an gcomhrac in aghaidh na cibearchoireachta, leagadh béim ar an ngá atá le modhanna a aimsiú chun fianaise leictreonach a dhaingniú agus a fháil níos gasta, chomh maith lena thábhachtaí atá dlúthchomhar idir údaráis forfheidhmithe dlí, tríú tíortha agus soláthraithe seirbhíse atá gníomhach ar chríoch na hEorpa, i gcomhréir le Rialachán (AE) 2016/679 ó Pharlaimint na hEorpa agus ón gComhairle agus le Treoir (AE) 2016/680 ó Pharlaimint na hEorpa agus ón gComhairle, agus le comhaontuithe um chúnamh dlíthiúil frithpháirteach atá ann cheana.
