The category of psychological restraint may be further subdivided into two types :(i) situations where suspects face legal liability for refusing to comply with police directives; and(ii) situations where, despite the absence of such liability, they reasonably believe that compliance is mandatory. 1, record 1, English, - detention

Elle indique également qu'il y a détention lorsque sa liberté d'action est restreinte par un policier ou un agent de l’État au moyen d’une sommation ou d’un ordre qui peut entraîner des conséquences sérieuses sur le plan juridique et qui a pour effet d'empêcher l'accusé d'avoir recours à un avocat. La Cour précise également qu'il peut s'agir de contrainte physique mais également psychologique si l'accusé, suite à un ordre d'un policier, peut raisonnablement penser qu'il n'est pas libre de refuser d'exécuter ce qu'on lui demande. 1, record 1, French, - d%C3%A9tention

The Peace Clause. Article 13("due restraint") of the Agriculture Agreement protects countries using subsidies which comply with the agreement from being challenged under other WTO [World Trade Organization] agreements. Without this "peace clause, "countries would have greater freedom to take action against each others’ subsidies, under the Subsidies and Countervailing Measures Agreement and related provisions. The peace clause is due to expire at the end of 2003. Some countries want it extended so that they can enjoy some degree of "legal security, "ensuring that they will not be challenged so long as they comply with their commitments on export subsidies and domestic support under the Agriculture Agreement. 2, record 3, English, - peace%20clause

Sans cette «clause de paix», les pays auraient une plus grande latitude pour engager des actions contre les subventions des autres au titre des dispositions de l'Accord sur les subventions et les mesures compensatoires, parmi d'autres. La clause de paix devrait devenir caduque à la fin de 2003. Certains pays voudraient la proroger afin de disposer d'une certaine «sécurité juridique», qui leur donnerait l'assurance qu'aucune action ne serait entamée contre eux tant qu'ils respecteraient les engagements concernant les subventions à l'exportation et le soutien interne qu'ils ont pris dans le cadre de l'Accord sur l'agriculture. 2, record 3, French, - clause%20de%20paix
