While under arest. You will be given your rights and entitlements.
This is a legal terminology, I'm having difficulty translating word entitlement as a single word (without going into leghty explanations)
Thank you in advance.

tiesības
In theory Freimanis is right, however, here the context is “arrest” and the rights and entitlements of a person under arrest. In this context in Latvian only 1 word is used “tiesības”, while “entitlement” usually is translated in this context as “tiesības uz” further stating what the exact entitlements are.
Now this would create a non-sense of writing twice “tiesības”, therefore I would write them only once.

Example sentence:
Jūs tiksiet informēts par savām tiesībām.

tiesības un privilēģijas
Normally the word entitlement is used in a different context - I recall a BBC broadcast by the late Mr Cook talking about retired people in US.
Also Black's Law Dictionary defines it in the context of social security:
An absolute right to a (usu. monetary) benefit, such as social security, granted immediately upon meeting a legal requirement.
However, in the most general sense entitlement is a privilige and can be directly translated as such.
