Operation Hermes (link): "During the Belgian presidency, the Belgian integrated police will take the initiative to organise a joint operation in a large number of Member States, aimed at mapping the flows of illegal immigration within the European Union." But:

"Operation Hermes is not limited to mapping flows of illegal immigration. Another important goal of this project is to actively promote and valorise the European police networks Tispol, Aquapol and Railpol. Tispol is a network of European traffic police forces. Aquapol unites the European police and inspection services of the waterways and Railpol brings together the European railway police services."
