01 September 2011

Support our work: become a Friend of Statewatch from as little as £1/€1 per month.

FUNCTION CREEP: EU: Council of the European Union: European Police Chiefs Convention (pdf): includes:

"Criminal and intelligence databases have to be harmonised and interconnected as soon as possible."

"It is essential that the administrative boundaries that currently exist between key agencies (Europol, SITCEN, Frontex etc) are eased to facilitate cooperation and information exchange in a more pragmatic way."

"Europol should be able to engage itself more easily. In that field, executive powers for Europol may become necessary in some respect. Is it cot effective that sometimes two organisations analyse the same information?"

Our work is only possible with your support.
