More
generally
,
the
use
of
a
criterion
which
is
“
dynamic
”
,
and
therefore
ongoing
and
changeable
by
definition
,
could
well
lead
to
uncertainties
incompatible
with
the
substance
of
the
nullum
crimen
nulla
poena
sine
lege
principle
.
It
is
almost
platitudinous
to
reiterate
that
that
principle
is
the
cornerstone
of
criminal
law
and
criminal
proceedings
,
and
that
it
forms
part
of
the
hard
core
of
the
Convention
,
as
a
provision
from
which
no
derogation
is
permissible
.
Any
attempt
to
limit
its
scope
would
require
recourse
to
criteria
which
are
reliable
and
stable
enough
to
ensure
the
certainty
of
the
law
necessary
in
criminal
matters
.
