Association of Chief Police Officers –Written evidenceHowever, only the UK and Ireland have agreed the measure so in reality it is abilateral which at this time suits the UK.2. 1999/615/JHA - Defining 4-MTA as a new synthetic drug which is to bemade subject to control measures and criminal penalties. The UK canproscribe whatever drugs it wishes and is free to follow or ignore other states. Aswith the other drugs prohibition measures, it is not in the interests of the UK to bebeholden to by the EU as to what should be proscribed. Although this has notcaused any harm to the UK so far, in the interests of transparency it would be betterfor the UK to rely on the Drug Advisory Board and the emergency proscriptionmeasures that Parliament currently has in respect of drugs rather than be dictated toby an EU-wide measure.3. 2000/383/JHA - Increasing protection by criminal penalties and othersanctions against counterfeiting in connection with the introduction of theEuro. In the UK, the Euro is treated the same as any other currency that iscounterfeited and not as a special case.4. 2002/188/JHA - Concerning control measures and criminal sanctions inrespect of the new synthetic drug PMMA. See 1999/615/JHA, ante.5. 2002/475/JHA - Combating terrorism. This Decision relates to the adoption ofcommon CT legislation and definitions. Most CT legislation in the UK is far strongerthan other Member States and it is unlikely that any legislation agreed across the EUwould be more robust than existing UK legislation. For this reason, it was advisedthat adoption would bring no benefit, as it may mean a potential weakening of UKlegislation. In the area of proscribing terrorist organisations it is not helpful as it isnot in the interests of the UK to have other states determining what organisationsshould be proscribed in the UK. ACPO take the view that this measure should notbe adopted.6. 2008/919/JHA - Amending Framework Decision 2002/475/JHA oncombating terrorism. This Decision only amends small parts of 2002/475/JHA sosee above for details on why this TPM should be adopted.7. 2002/996/JHA - Establishing a mechanism for evaluating the legal systemsand their implementation at national level in the fight against terrorism.This establishes a working group EU wide for the oversight of the way that CTmatters are developed and to monitor expertise in various areas. There is a viewthat states where CT infrastructure is weaker than the UK’s could benefit from ourinclusion however, the correlation between this aim and the measure is tenuous.We do not use this measure at present; it would commit us to a working group forpeer evaluation on CT structures and could create a burden in terms of staffabstraction and bureaucracy.8. 2003/847/JHA - Concerning control measures and criminal sanctions inrespect of the new synthetic drugs 2C-I, 2C-T-2, 2C-T-7 and TMA-2.
