"Madam President, the fight against organised crime is one of the most important areas and priorities in the area of EU justice policy. Cooperation and coordination between Member States must be improved. Legislation must be unified and focused on legal systems that are as effective as possible at combating organised crime. I support Ms Alfano’s call for the Commission to submit a draft framework directive on confiscating the proceeds of crime. That was one of the priorities of the Group of the Progressive Alliance of Socialists and Democrats in the European Parliament and, as the Group’s Vice-Chair for this area, I must say that I am delighted that this proposal has been adopted.
It is also important to establish a mechanism for effectively redistributing the confiscated resources back into society, so that they are used for social objectives, and, in this context, I welcome the call addressed to the Commission to accept and support the urgent need for European legislation on the re-use of the proceeds of crime for the benefit of society, including witness protection."@en1
