The meeting was convened within the framework of the Police Cooperation Convention for Southeast Europe (PCC SEE), and executed by Contracting Parties and Federal Ministry of the Interior of Austria with the support of PCC SEE Secretariat, bringing together the national experts of Albania for special investigation techniques and surveillance in order to assist Albania in the implementation of bilateral agreements on Cross-border Surveillance and Controlled Delivery (Article 14 abd 15 PCC SEE).
A review of specific practical and operational aspects of police cooperation in the field of Cross-border Surveillance and Controlled Delivery was done in order to detect possible difficulties and to examine the way to solve them in compliance with the EU standards. Presentation by an expert from Austria highlighted the issues of good practices.
