Formez takes part in a Project on Fighting Illicit Vehicle Traffic

On January 18 2010, the European Commission Direction General Justice, Freedom and Security under the Community programme “Security and protection of freedom – Prevention of and Fight against Crime” agreed upon funding the Project “Good Faith: fight against illicit vehicle traffic and hit notification system” which envisages a consortium composed of the Italian Ministry of the Interior, the S.I.R.E.N.E Office who is the leader of the project,  the N-S.I.S. Office and Formez.
The project which has a duration of 12 months, aims at identifying common procedures and technological solutions, so as to improve the sharing of information between the member States of the Schengen area: The target is to effectively fight against the transnational criminal networks dedicated to the traffic of stolen vehicles. The project pursues the ultimate objective of defining a common procedure for the registration and repatriation of stolen vehicles. Among the activities foreseen, the project includes the organization of an international conference and other preliminary activities of preparation to the conference, as well as various concluding initiatives aiming at diffusing the results of the event and evaluating the level of application of the agreed procedures. The key objective of these visits will be to define the questions to be discussed during the conference and the elaboration of preliminary documents to be distributed among participant countries.
Formez will contribute to the realization of the project activities and to the financial, administrative and logistic management.
