"The conservative and reactive nature of policing and ever tightening budgets leave agencies insufficiently prepared for new threats ... We must gear up in the fight against organised crime, not only in order to optimise our responses today, but also to prepare ourselves for the challenges of the future. A joined up world requires a crime fighting approach which is equally joined up. A new model of policing is suggested that draws on a network of law enforcement specialists, and emphasises collaboration with partners in the private sector, NGOs and academia."
