Articles 2, 3 and 8(4) of Council Framework Decision on the standing of victims in criminal proceedings, must be interpreted as not precluding provisions of national law, which,
- first, do not impose on the Public Prosecutor any obligation to apply to the competent court so that a victim who is particularly vulnerable may be heard and give evidence under the arrangements of the incidente probatorio during the investigation phase of criminal proceedings and,
- second, do not give to that victim the right to bring an appeal before a court against that decision of the Public Prosecutor rejecting his or her request to be heard and to give evidence under those arrangements.
