".
Once again, we are considering a Member State initiative that errs on the side of being too cautious and unambitious and will not lead to the changes in legislation that are desirable and necessary in this field. Changes introduced by the rapporteur, Mr Ribeiro e Castro, have improved on the initial proposal.
Effectively combating cross-border crime requires special attention to be paid to stepping up cooperation on posting liaison officers to third countries and to international organisations. Although cooperation contributing to the prevention, identification and investigation of crimes is already in place, we must strengthen certain aspects of this cooperation between liaison officers in order to make the best use of Member State resources, thereby providing greater world coverage.
Combating international crime must be a joint action based on maximum cooperation and trust between Member States. It is crucial that binding instruments are in place at Community level, establishing common rules on the competences of liaison officers and on data protection and to subject the legality of this exchange of information to judicial control. The huge variety of laws in force creates enormous difficulties for the effective cooperation of national liaison officers and Europol, as well as complicating judicial control.
Hence this proposal for a decision, which is intended to update and improve cooperation in this field and to be legally binding on the Member States, unlike the Joint Action of 1996."@en1
