Amendment 48 #
Proposal for a regulation
Recital 4
(4) Given the increasingly global nature of serious crime and terrorism brought about by growing mobility, the information that third countries and international organisations, such as the International Criminal Police Organization and the International Criminal Court, obtain about criminals and terrorists is increasingly relevant for the Union‘s security. Such information shcould contribute to the comprehensive efforts to ensure internal security in the European Union. Some of this information is only shared with Europol. While Europol holds valuable information received from external partners on serious criminals and terrorists, it cannot issue alerts in SIS. Member States are also not always able to issue alerts in SIS on the basis of such information.

Amendment 58 #
Proposal for a regulation
Recital 8
(8) In order to assess whether a concrete case is adequate, relevant and important enough to warrant the entry of an alert in SIS, and in order to confirm the reliability of the source of information and the accuracy of the information on the person concerned, that the information was not obtained in breach of fundamental rights of the person, that it was not communicated to Europol for unlawful purposes or motivated by political reasons, Europol should carry out a detailed individual assessment of each case, including further consultations with the third country or international organisation that shared the data on the person concerned, as well as further analysis of the case, in particular by cross checking it against information it already holds in its databases, to confirm the accuracy of the information and complement it with other data on the basis of its own databases. The detailed individual assessment should include the analysis of whether there are sufficient grounds for considering that the person has committed or taken part in, or will commit a criminal offence in respect of which Europol is competent.

Amendment 69 #
Proposal for a regulation
Recital 11
(11) It is necessary to establish rules concerning the deletion of alerts entered in SIS by Europol. An alert should be kept only for the time required to achieve the purpose for which it was entered. It is therefore appropriate to set out detailed criteria to determine when the alert should be deleted. An alert entered by Europol in SIS should be deleted in particular ifafter the expiry of the alert, where a Member State objects, to an alert, where another alert is entered in SIS by a Member State, or if Europol becomes aware, based on new information, that the information received from the third country or international organisation was incorrect orwas incorrect, the person is no longer suspected to be involved in a criminal activity, or the information was communicated to Europol for unlawful purposes, for example if sharing the information on the person was motivated by political reasons.
