The document with the platform, which will soon be sent to the government, is the result of a two-year work of ministry employees, university professors and experts from Austria, the minister told a news conference in Zagreb on Wednesday.
The platform envisages the adjustment of Croatia's legislation in this field to European standards and that there will be no longer pre-trial investigations.
This means that there will be no more pre-investigative actions taken both by the police and the prosecution before an investigating judge.
Data and evidence on possible criminal acts are to be collected by crime investigators in cooperation with prosecutors from the Office of the State Prosecutor under the supervision of a judge in charge of the investigation in concern.
The minister assessed that the changes to the law on criminal proceedings would cut the number of lawsuits by 40 percent. The new law is not expected to take effect before 2012.
Commenting on the performance of her ministry in 2006, Lovrin said that almost all the planned activities have been entirely completed.
"The reform in the judiciary is a job that takes much time and results cannot be immediately palpable," she said in response to recent objections of the European Commission in relations to the work of the Justice Ministry. The objections include remarks about delays in the modernisation of courts, backlogs, lengthy trials, and a high corruption rates.
