(3) The objective of this Regulation is therefore to improve, streamline and facilitate the exchange of criminal informationdata about persons who have been convicted of a serious criminal offence or are reasonably suspected of a serious criminal offence, in the context of an investigation into serious criminal offences, between Member States’ law enforcement authorities, but also with and the European Union Agency for Law Enforcement Cooperation established by Regulation (EU) No 2016/794 of the European Parliament and of the Council30 (Europol) as the Union criminal information hub. _________________ 30 Regulation (EU) 2016/794 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 11 May 2016 on the European Union Agency for Law Enforcement Cooperation (Europol) and replacing and repealing Council Decisions 2009/371/JHA, 2009/934/JHA, 2009/935/JHA, 2009/936/JHA and 2009/968/JHA (OJ L 135, 24.5.2016, p. 53).

Proposal for a regulation
Recital 8
(8) The Directive (EU) …/… [on information exchange between law enforcement authorities of Member States] provides a coherent Union legal framework to ensure that law enforcement authorities have equivalent access to information held by other Member States when they need it to fight crime and terrorism. To enhance information exchange, that Directive formalises and clarifies the procedures for information sharing between Member States, in particular for investigative purposes, including the role of the ‘Single Point of Contact’ for such exchanges, and making full use of Europol’s information exchange channel SIENA. Any exchange of information beyond what is provided for in this Regulation should be regulated by Directive (EU) …/… [on information exchange between law enforcement authorities of Member States].

Recital 9
(9) For the automated searching of certain vehicle registration data, Member States should use the European Vehicle and Driving Licence Information System (Eucaris) set up by the Treaty concerning a European Vehicle and Driving Licence Information System (EUCARIS) designed for this purpose. Eucaris should connect all participating Member States in a network. There is no central component needed for the communication to be established as each Member State communicates directly to the other connected Member States. Databases containing information about holders or owners of driving licenses shall be excluded from the scope of this Regulation.

Proposal for a regulation
Recital 12
(12) Participation in the exchange of police records should remain voluntary. Where Member States decide to participate, in the spirit of reciprocity they should ensure the availability of national police records indexes which contain sets of biographical data of convicted persons from national databases established for the prevention, detection and investigation of criminal offences. Given the sensitivity of the data concerned, it should notonly be possible for them to query other Member States’ databases if they do not make their own data available for querto conduct searches for and exchange police records related to persons convicted of or reasonably suspected of a serious criminal offence . When creating national police records indexes, it is important that Member States use data from national databases established for law enforcement purposes. Member States’ law enforcement authorities shall check those data in the national police records indexes on receipt of information requests from the competent law enforcement authorities byof other Member States.

Proposal for a regulation
Recital 13
(13) In recent years, Europol has received a large amount of biometric data of suspected and convicted terrorists and criminals from several third countries. Including third country-sourced data stored at Europol in the Prüm framework and thus making this data available to law enforcement authorities is necessarymay be helpful for better prevention and investigation of serious criminal offences. It also contributes to building synergies between different law enforcement tool but should also be critically assessed to avoid use of it if it has been provided to intentionally incriminate innocent persons.

Proposal for a regulation
Recital 14
(14) Europol should be able to search Member States’ databases under the Prüm framework with data received from third countries in order to establish cross-border links between cases of serious criminal casoffences. Being able to use Prüm data, next to other databases available to Europol, should allow establishing more complete and informed analysis on the criminal investigations and should allow Europol to provide better support to Member States’ law enforcement authorities. In case of a match between data used for the search and data held in Member States’ databases, Member States may supply Europol with the information necessary for it to fulfil its tasks.

Proposal for a regulation
Recital 15
(15) Decisions 2008/615/JHA and 2008/616/JHA provide for a network of bilateral connections between the national databases of Member States. As a consequence of this technical architecture, each Member State should establish at least 26 connections, that means a connection with each Member State, per data category. The router and the European Police Records Index System (EPRIS) established by this Regulation should simplify the technical architecture of the Prüm framework and serve as connecting points between all Member States. The router should require a single connection per Member State in relation to biometric data and EPRIS should require a single connection per Member State in relation to police recordof serious criminal offences.

(17) In case of a match between the data used for the search or comparison and data held in the national database of the requested Member State(s), and upon confirmation of this match by the requesting Member State, the requested Member State should return a limited set of core data via the router within 248 hours. The deadline would ensure fast communication exchange between Member States’ authorities. Member States should retain control over the release of this limited set of core data. A certain degree of hHuman intervention should be maintained at key points in the process, including for the decision to release personal data to the requesting Member State in order to ensure that there would be no automated exchange of corepersonal data.

(19) The universal message format (UMF) standard should be used in the development of the router and EPRIS. Any automated exchange of data in accordance with this Regulation should use the UMF standard. Member States’ authorities and Europol are encouraged to use the UMF standard also in relation to any further exchange of data between them in the context of the Prüm II framework. The UMF standard should serve as a standard for structured, cross- border information exchange between information systems, authorities or organisations in the field of Justice and Home Affairs.

(21) Certain aspects of the Prüm II framework cannot be covered exhaustively by this Regulation given their technical, highly detailed and frequently changing nature. Those aspects include, for example, technical arrangements and specifications for automated searching procedures, the standards for data exchange and the data elements to be exchanged.
