based on the theory of social development models and include principles found to be effective in other programmes. Organized Crime in General In 2013, the Mission organized training courses and workshops on Intelligence-led Policing (ILP) and other areas in combating organized crime together with EUROPOL, NICO project and other international partners. Efforts aimed to increase capacities that are corresponding to EUROPOL standards; to reach the standards related to the Action Plan on the implementation of Chapter 24 on Justice and Home Affairs of the EU acquis communautaire; and to play a valuable role in assisting the MoI and Police Administration in developing a sustainable strategy and action plans to fight organized crime. The Mission also promoted a regional approach to combating organized crime and helped to strengthen the capacities of the Montenegrin police to collect and process criminal intelligence through various methods. On 18 June, the Mission and the MoI organized the first roundtable meeting in Podgorica on “Intelligence Co-operation and Sharing of Information among Police Services in the West Balkans Countries”. The meeting focused on enhancing current methods in sharing information and identifying possible models of co-operation in ILP. In this regard the Nordic model of co-operation was presented. Each of the participating countries was represented by three senior police officers responsible for intelligence collection, analysis and dissemination. The Mission, MoI and participants assessed the event as highly valuable in developing a network of intelligence police officers from countries who speak similar languages. Moreover they noted that it was essential to continue this initiative with the possibility of involving other OSCE field operations. As part of the re-organization of the Police Directorate and MoI that was scheduled to be completed by May 2014, the Mission continued to help build the effectiveness of Montenegro’s ILP. From 25-29 November, the Mission organized a four-day working visit for three senior police managers to the Swedish National Police in Stockholm. The delegation met with Sweden’s Police Criminal Investigation Section, National Intelligence Centre and Operational Analyses Unit, which allowed them to gain valuable information on Swedish methods of ILP and the way that it could be applied at the national, regional and local level. From 18-22 November, the Mission organized training in Budva on the topic of “Informant Recruitment and Handling” for 11 crime police investigators from eight police stations. The training was led by two police officers, assisted by a police expert from the Mission. The Mission assessed that as informant handling was a key aspect of crime policing, additional assistance was necessary to develop the capacity of police trainers in this area, as well as to define job descriptions of crime police officers responsible for handling police informants. In 2013, the Mission also continued building capacity of analysts in the National Criminal Intelligence Service. The Mission, in co-operation with the OSCE Mission to Serbia and the OSCE Mission to Skopje therefore implemented a two-year project on enhancing capacities for strategic analysis and assessments in the Criminal Investigation Directorates of the Ministries of Interior of the former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia, Montenegro and Serbia. This project was implemented in co-operation with EUROPOL and DCAF. 76
