A new step on the path of joint European action, specifically in the security field, and this step was represented in an agreement between the Brussels institutions on a stronger mandate for the European Police Agency “Europol”. Under this enhanced mandate, Europol will be able to increase its support to Member States in combating serious crimes and terrorism and addressing security threats. emerging. Europol will be able to cooperate effectively with private parties. This step was commended by the Brussels Commission as the executive body of the Union. The Commission did not fail to mention the many advantages included in the agreement between the European Parliament and the Council of Member States of the Union. From the Commission’s point of view, the updates in this agreement set clear rules for handling large and complex data sets, and allow the agency to develop technologies New correspond to the needs of law enforcement. These changes come with an enhanced framework for data protection as well as stronger parliamentary oversight and accountability. Europol provides support and expertise to national law enforcement authorities in preventing and combating serious crimes and terrorism. The Commission proposed strengthening Europol's work in December 2020 to allow the agency to better support national law enforcement authorities with information, analysis and expertise, and to facilitate cross-border police cooperation and terrorism investigations. Brussels Commission officials see Europol as a real example of where EU action helps protect everyone. Some officials have even gone so far as to say that the latest agreement between federal institutions will give Europol the right tools and guarantees to support police forces in analyzing big data for the investigation. In crimes and in developing pioneering methods to address cybercrime, in light of the European conviction within the Commission to continue to fulfill the security union.” Recently, Europol has positioned itself as a global leader in developing new law enforcement technology, collaborating with private companies to prevent and investigate crimes and protecting basic rights such as the protection of personal data.” The Commission was keen to clarify some matters related to this agreement between the federal institutions when it published that the updated mandate includes: Effective cooperation with private parties, in full compliance with strict data protection requirements. Terrorists often misuse the services provided by private companies to recruit volunteers, carry out terrorist attacks, and spread their propaganda. But under the latter mandate, Europol will be able to receive personal data directly from private parties and analyze this data to determine which member states can open investigations into related crimes. This cooperation will continue to be subject to strict data protection requirements. Clear rules on the analysis of “big data” by Europol in support of criminal investigations, consistent with fundamental rights. Another important point is that processing large data sets is no longer an integral part of police work today, and Europol's role is essential in detecting criminal activities that avoid analysis by individual member states. The new mandate provides legal clarity on the prior analysis of big data by Europol, and also addresses recent decisions by the European Data Protection Supervisor. Europol will have 18 months to pre-analyze big data from member states and assign it a data subject classification, with the possibility of extending it for another 18 months. In addition to the aforementioned, there is a supportive role for Europol in issuing media alerts about foreign terrorist fighters. Europol will be able to suggest that member states enter the Schengen Information System and information from countries outside the European Union about suspects and criminals, especially foreign fighters. This will make this information available directly to officers at the external borders of the Union and within the Schengen area. Enhanced cooperation with non-EU countries as serious crime and terrorism often have links outside the territory of the Union. There will also be a new role for Europol in research and innovation to identify new technology needs for law enforcement, helping to provide national law enforcement authorities with modern IT tools to combat serious crime and terrorism. It can be argued that the rules contained in the latest agreement between the federal institutions provide further strengthening of Europol's data protection framework to ensure that Europol continues to have one of the strongest data protection frameworks in the world of law enforcement, in line with EU rules on data protection. Enhanced oversight of Europol, with additional powers of the European Data Protection Supervisor and the new Europol Fundamental Rights Officer. Enhanced parliamentary oversight and accountability, while strengthening the role of the Joint Parliamentary Monitoring Group (responsible for monitoring the activities of the European Police Agency Europol). And the European step is now in its last stage before implementation, which requires the approval of the European Parliament. Europol provides support and expertise to national law enforcement authorities in preventing and combating serious crime and terrorism. The Commission proposed strengthening Europol's mandate in December 2020 to allow the agency to better support national law enforcement authorities with information, analysis and expertise, and to facilitate cross-border police cooperation and terrorism investigations.
