18/04/2008 (Agence Europe) - “I've had enough of all the meetings where there is a lot of fine talk and no progress. It's time to translate words into action,” said French Interior Minister Michèle Alliot-Marie after taking part in the Justice and Home Affairs meeting, at which there were a large number of issues for discussion and adoption. Saying that she wanted to begin work in a large number of areas, she announced that, during the future French Presidency, she intended to bring forward a proposal to combat cyber-crime. “We need to have a technical headstart on terrorists and serious crime,” she said. She also pointed out that among the work being prepared was joint training for European police officers (see EUROPE 9641), and the launch of genuine European civil protection. (B.C.)
