Abstract:
On December 2 and 3, experts from the European Union Members met in the Hague to discuss and share knowledge on Joint Investigation Teams (JITs). Europol and Eurojust jointly organized the conference and hosted representatives from the EU Council Secretariat, European Commission, Frontex, OLAF, and LIBE Committee of the European Parliament. The participants concentrated on the exchange of best practices for operating a JIT, JIT funding opportunities, profile requirements for successful JIT experts at a national level and how to further stimulate the use of the JIT mechanism.
