Cooperation

The NCTb operates in an administratively and politically complex environment. Political coordination is primarily the domain of the Cabinet Committee on National Security (RNV), under the direction of the prime minister. The ministers most closely involved in matters relating to counterterrorism and the intelligence and security services consult in this committee. RNV meetings are prepared by the Joint Counterterrorism Committee (GCT), whose members represent the ministries and government agencies involved in combating terrorism.

Europe

After 11 September 2001, EU member states began stepping up their cooperation to combat terrorism and since then the EU has implemented a range of measures to prevent attacks, improve investigation and prosecution and prepare for a possible attack. The European Union has a coordinator whose tasks are to harmonise counterterrorism efforts within the EU and ensure that security and law enforcement agencies and other relevant organisations cooperate and exchange information effectively.

Investments to achieve aims of cooperation

The NCTb and its staff are responsible for ensuring that cooperation between the national and international parties involved is and remains of a high standard. Because the success of the NCTb depends entirely on good relationships and efficient cooperation, it will continue to make the appropriate investments to achieve these aims. This unified approach should lead to a counterterrorism strategy that is more than the sum of its parts.
