- Summary
- At its meeting on 1-2 December 2005, the Council adopted the Action Plan on Trafficking in Human Beings (OJ C 311 of 9.12.2005, p. 1). The Action Plan includes key recommendations and actions. To implement point 3(2)(b) of the abovementioned Action Plan, which requires the creation of "a network of media contacts on trafficking to publicise successes within and outside the EU", Member States were invited to provide the details of such contact point(s). A list of contact point(s) has been compiled and is set out in Annex I to this document. Point 4(2)(a) requires Member States, in the context of the overall effort to reduce the demand for trafficked persons in destination countries, to report any current best practice on community engagement and community policing strategies adopted to deter trafficking that may occur informally within communities. The contributions of Member States on this point are set out in Annex II to this document. Contributions on the relevant points from EUROPOL, EUROJUST and FRONTEX are set out in Annex III to this document. As Bulgaria and Romania became members of the European Union on 1 January 2007, those delegations are now also invited to send their contributions [...]. Other delegations that have not yet sent their contributions under points 2 and 3 of this document are invited to send the relevant information by the end of February 2007 [...].
