The specific capabilities in these four fields could be used in the context of EU-led autonomous missions, or in the context of operations conducted by lead agencies, such as the UN or the OSCE (Organisation for Security and Co-operation in Europe).
Police
The European Union aims to be capable of carrying out any police operation, from advisory, assistance and training tasks to substituting to local police forces. Member States have undertaken to provide up to 5000 police officers by 2003, of whom up to 1 400 can be deployed in under 30 days.
Strengthening the rule of law
Efforts deployed on an international scale to reinforce and if necessary restore credible local police forces can only be successful if a properly functioning judicial and penitentiary system backs up the police forces. Member States have undertaken to provide nearly 300 officers in charge of crisis management operations in that area(prosecutors, judges, prison officers).
Civil administration
As regards civil administration, a pool of experts has been created, capable of accepting civil administration missions in the context of crisis-management operations, and if necessary, being deployed at very short notice.
Civil protection
In this area too, the objective has been achieved, and consists of:
- 2 or 3 assessment and/or coordination teams, capable of being mobilised around the clock, and consisting of 10 experts, who could be dispatched within 3 to 7 hours;
- intervention teams of up to 2000 persons for deployment at short notice;
- additional or more specialised means which could be dispatched within 2 to 7 days depending on the particular needs of each crisis.
The Ministerial Civilian Crisis Management Capability Conference held on
Monday, 13 April 2009
Everything this Government has done is to work towards what the European Union wants.
It has never for one moment put its own people and/or their own Country first.
Even our own National Security, so essential for the protection of this Country, the EU is to have a hand in.
In the war time that I knew of, if details of critical infrastructure had been given to foreigners, the person would either have been lynched or handed to the Government of the day and that person would not have been given another chance to commit what was seen as treason.
The Conservative Government cannot just stand back and wash their hands of the sheer treachery of what is happening now because they too have had plenty of time to withdraw.
They did not need to ratify the various Treaties.
They knew exactly what signing them meant and the one paper I forwarded, used the Treaty of Maastricht to implement.
Lisbon should never have been signed never mind ratified.
Not one member of Government or Parliament has had the GUTS to admit what they have done.
LIES, LIES and ever more LIES, unless they really believe the EU Constitution was just a "tidying up exercise"?
May God forgive them for what they have done to this their Country and the people that they were supposed to represent.
The money they have taken under the false pretense of governing this Country will not save them from the eventual torment they will know in later years because they have not looked into the future of what their actions will bring forth in time.
