Lots of excellent details and background in there. Including a loose
agenda -
G8 Transnational crime and Counter-terror objectives in 2005 -
The 2005 objectives combine work on the inherited agenda and a number of
new initiatives. There are nearly 100 separate projects. The key areas
of work are:
* As lead country for counter-narcotics work in Afghanistan, the UK
will continue to seek co-ordination of the G8 support for this work
* The completion of several initiatives to enhance international
travel security
* International co-operation in combating immigration crime, with an
emphasis on document fraud
* International law enforcement co-operation, focussing on child
protection, the expanded use of DNA and the international illegal trade
in firearms
* International co-operation in combating high-tech crime
* Shared assessment of the threat from international terrorism and
co-operation to counter the treat
* The reinforcement of the principles of judicial co-operation and
mutual legal assistance in the investigation and prosecution of
transnational organised crime and terrorism
