On 5th and 6th April 2018, a delegation of the European Parliament’s Committee on Civil Liberties, Justice and Home Affairs (LIBE) visited CEPOL to discuss issues related to security and migration. The purpose of the visit was to gain a better understanding and exchange views on CEPOL’s contribution to EU Internal Security and Migration.
The LIBE Committee delegation, consisted of Ms Kinga Gál and Mr Andrejs Mamikins, met with the European Union Agency for Law Enforcement Training Executive Director, Mr Detlef Schroeder and the management of the Agency, and held talks on EU Security and Migration challenges.
Mr Schroeder appraised the EU Parlamentarians on the Agency’s mandate and training activities in priority areas, such as Cybercrime, Counter-Terrorism, and Serious and Organised Crime.
Besides, LIBE Committee representatives gained a further insight on how CEPOL addresses the needs of the fundamental rights’ promotion in law enforcement training and the capacity building activities in third countries.
The EU Parlamentarians reiterated their appreciation and support to the Agency and its mandate to provide high quality training for law enforcement officials.
