"The single market and discrepancies between national laws leave a great deal of leeway for organised crime. However, there is now an even more complex variable: the economic crisis, which is giving rise to other forms of organised crime which are exploiting uncertainty and insecurity, especially among private individuals. In Greece, for example, which has been hardest hit by the crisis, there has been a rapid increase in blackmail (as much as 50% within a year), in smuggling (up 84.29%) and in counterfeit coins in circulation (up 56.99%).
Organised crime therefore needs an organised response and organised policies on the part of the EU. This particular report, which I voted in favour of, understands the new challenges; however, in addition to existing legislative initiatives, the Commission should consider new, more effective legislative initiatives in this sector."@en1
