Following the presentations of each delegation on the national state-of-play and an exchange of opinions, participants continued to discuss the use of the common web application for data management developed by the Programme and addressed the elements of further practical solutions in the area of risk analysis, which will have added value for the practitioners and an increased efficiency of police cooperation.
