summary
The European Parliament adopted without debate the report by Mr Hubert PIRKER (PPE, A) on the draft Council Act and Protocol on the definition of money laundering in the Convention on the use of information technology for customs purposes (CIS Convention). It clarified the definition of property to be seized, namely proceeds from crime derived from serious criminal offences or any infringement of Community or national customs provisions. Serious criminal offences must at all events include offences punishable by imprisonment or measures of correction and prevention involving a loss of liberty of at least one year or, in the case of Member States whose legal systems provide for minimum sentences, imprisonment or measures of correction and prevention involving a loss of liberty of not less than six months. Parliament restricted access to data contained in the customs information system to the designated national authorities and Europol.�

summary
OBJECTIVE: To amend the Convention on the Use of Information Technology for Customs Purposes (CIS Convention). SUBSTANCE: The draft Council act, on the basis of Article K.3 TEU, aims to remedy two loopholes in the current CIS Convention in relation to other acts currently in force. It is thus proposed to make two additions: - to add the heading 'registration number of the means of transport' in the data category 'means of transport' of the Convention (this would enable the text of the Convention to be harmonised with that of Regulation (EC) 515/97 on the Customs Information System which includes this category of data); - to amend the definition of money laundering in the current convention to extend it to areas other than those in connection with drug trafficking. This new definition would correspond to that advised by the Naples II Convention (Convention on mutual assistance and cooperation between customs administrations). It would cover 'the transfer, conversion, concealment or disguise of property or proceeds derived from, obtained directly or indirectly through or used in illicit international drug trafficking or any infringement of Community or national customs provisions' (whether harmonised or not), or affecting VAT on imports or acquired through infringement of the provisions relating to the agriculture sector. �
