Commission Declaration

The Commission takes note of the fact that this regulation, amending Decision 2005/681/JHA establishing the European Police College (CEPOL), seeks a settlement for the location of the Agency following the UK decision to no longer host CEPOL on its current premises in Bramshill (UK). In that context, the Commission reiterates its view that an alternative solution to merge or at least co-locate CEPOL and Europol would have better matched the goals of rationalisation and operational improvement for both agencies.

The Commission further points to the potential adverse budgetary effects of this decision and notes that any possible additional funding from the EU budget that might be necessary would need to be agreed between the two branches of the budgetary authority and to be covered from the resources available within the yearly margins and ceilings of the Multiannual Financial Framework.

In accordance with Article 1, paragraph 1, subparagraph 2, the Commission will present a report taking into account all the relevant aspects at the time of the report. The Commission confirms its willingness to present a legislative proposal on a new legal basis for CEPOL and to exercise its right of initiative in this regard in accordance with the rules of the Treaties.
