The PROJECT BORNHOLM co-operates closely with Baltic Sea - and several other
European - authorities, as a targeted intelligence- communication- and local
operative centre, which in strictly compliance with the national legisla-
tion and regulation, investigate, evaluate, combine and passes on in-
formation, concerning ongoing cross-border crime in the Baltic
Sea maritime region, to the proper legal authority it may
concern, and to the degree that the duty permits.
One of the major forces of PROJECT BORNHOLM, is the ability to collect the
strings, co-ordinate a mission, and in close co-operation with a number
of efficient authorities in different countries, to keep surveillance, to
control and to manage a target throughout the Baltic Sea.
PROJECT BORNHOLM is to be regarded as a supplement to existing units, and
co-operate closely with the Border Guard authorities who works inside
the framework of "Baltic Sea Region Border Control Co-operation".
Mentioned co-operation - BSRBCC - was by the way
established in Helsinki, Finland in May 1997.
Anyway - The Danish National Commissioner of Police has autorized
PROJECT BORNHOLM
to act as the Danish National Co-ordination Centre (NCC) during
operations and exericses that runs in the frame of BSRBCC.
PROJECT BORNHOLM is connected online to all
nations with a coastline to the Baltic Sea.
The PROJECT BORNHOLM is a permanent unit, and may be considered as one of
the forerunners in combating cross-border crime in the Baltic Sea, but must
not be mistaken for the - at the Baltic Sea States Summit in 1996 -
established co-operation:
"Task-Force on Organized Crime in the Baltic Sea Region".
This Co-operation - fundamentally with the same goal as BSRBCC - to combat
cross-border crime in the Baltic Sea area, is a highly appriciated inspiration
to the PROJECT BORNHOLM staff, and from a professional point of view,
we encourage you to have a look at the website:
"Task-Force on Organized Crime in the Baltic Sea Region"
