I think there should be an EU intelligence agency but without having to merge other intelligence agency’s together
@8ZVQCLCFianna Fáil2yrs2Y
No, but intelligence agencies should closely work together when solving international crimes
@9K5NFWL2mos2MO
We should have a central EU intelligence agency but not necessarily made up from all the individual countries' intelligence agency.
@8WHXYLT3yrs3Y
A joint taskforce could be useful, but not to merge altogether
@8VZMSGX3yrs3Y
It should be dual. A national system that can work in conjucntion with a european system when required
@8TM8WLZ3yrs3Y
Yes, but only for countries which haven't had significant intelligence leaked to non-EU countries (e.g. Russia)
@8S27VRW3yrs3Y
yes when dealing with external affairs
@8RLZCHW3yrs3Y
Yes, but each country should still have their own specific agencies
@8RJXJG43yrs3Y
Ireland should set up its own Agency
@9F7CWTLPBB Solidarity7mos7MO
intelligence agencies should be abolished
No, but cooperation should be enouraged
@9BSTGM812mos12MO
our own and a EU AGENCY
@9BHDHBB12mos12MO
Not Merged, but better Intergated
Yes there should be a main one but every country should have its own small one too
@99QPD4Q1yr1Y
No but there should be some form if cooperation
Cooperate and a central agency but not merge or replace national
@998K78Q1yr1Y
No, co operate with other intelligence agencies on a case by case basis.
@983X5HPFianna Fáil1yr1Y
No, but cooperation between EU countries, and worldwide, with Europol/Interpol should increase
@97Q84D41yr1Y
We would review that policy we do have over our intelligence agencies it may will need to be updated
@93FJZV72yrs2Y
Yes, but not fully merged and as an umbrella/bridge.
@92NBW3C2yrs2Y
I would keep individual agencies but improve cooperation between them
@8ZP8PFFSocial Democrats2yrs2Y
Yes, it will make the EU more unified and efficient.
@8YYYXXKIndependent2yrs2Y
No. Interpol already exists. The EU can set certain standards that individual states must adhere to, and do audits to ensure these standards are being met, but for an individual nations national security, they should withhold their information from other states unless agreements between individual states exist.
@8YLXLQPSocial Democrats2yrs2Y
In theory yes but right now its not an because the rule of Law in countries outside EU
@8Y9Z24T2yrs2Y
No, however intelligence should be shared so long as it has been legally obtained and is subject to legal oversight
No, complete centralization would put the EU as a whole at greater risk of infiltration, sabotage, etc, especially by Israel.
@8XFLST72yrs2Y
intelligence agencies should be merged to create a central EU agency not before they agree to give up their Independent status
@8TPJ9733yrs3Y
No, but I do believe in a oversight body and a higher level of cooperation
@8TPHYZK3yrs3Y
No not merged, states need separate intelligence agencies, but these intelligence services must be able to connect to protect the EU, especially since there is the freedom of travel and as terrorists can move between borders
@8PYZ4BK3yrs3Y
No but there should be greater co-operation between intelligence agencies.
@8KP7HSQIndependent3yrs3Y
There should be a central EU one for training and cooperation, however, individual nation states should be able to retain their own.
@8J2LNT24yrs4Y
That should be reviewed & debated
@8H4GD784yrs4Y
that needs to be debated & looked at
