This edited collection explores the topic of disclosure of evidence and
information in the criminal justice process.
The book critically analyses the major issues driving the long-standing
problem of dysfunctional disclosure practice, with contributions from
academics, lawyers, former police officers, and current police
policymakers. The ultimate objective is to review the key problems at
the investigative, trial and post-conviction stages of criminal
proceedings, and to suggest a way forward through potential routes of
reform, both legal and cultural. The collection represents a significant
and novel contribution to the policy debate regarding disclosure, and
advances thought on resolving this issue in a fair and sustainable
manner.
The book provides a valuable resource for academics, practitioners and
policymakers working on this vital aspect of criminal procedure.
