The Council decided in the first half of 2002 that the European Police Academy would be set up in Denmark temporarily, pending a decision on its final seat. Until a final solution is found, the present temporary arrangements appear to be working satisfactorily.
The plan for the management of the external borders of the Member States of the European Union, approved by the Council at its meeting on 12 and 13 June 2002, makes provision, in the final paragraph, for the setting up of a European Corps of Border Guards. However, the plan mentions the setting up of a European Corps of Border Guards as just one of a number of possible future institutional steps, which could be considered in order to develop integrated management of external borders following an in-depth legal study addressing the question of the legal basis and identifying the instruments which would be necessary. The European Council in Seville noted that the Commission intended to continue examining the advisability and feasibility of such a police force and, as far as we know, the Commission has already started this study.
The European Council in Seville also urged the introduction, without delay, of the common unit for external border practitioners, composed of Member States’ heads of border control, to coordinate the various measures contained in the management plan, the aim being to gradually introduce integrated management of external borders.
This common unit was created at the meeting of the Council’s strategic committee on immigration, frontiers and asylum held on 22-23 June 2002. The common unit, known as ‘SCIFA +’, immediately undertook to apply the management plan and met five times during the Danish Presidency. One of these meetings was also attended by the candidate countries."@en1
