Project
Description: |
CICAD
has established a Working Group on Maritime Narcotrafficking. The Group
includes experts in maritime narcotrafficking control, port security and
other related fields. This Group works to assist member states in
addressing gaps or problems related to their control of ports and the
maritime movement of illicit drugs and related contraband. This could
include the development of model legislation or regulation, means to
target cargos or vessels of interest and mechanisms to promote
cooperation, collaboration and the exchange of information. Initially,
issues to be addressed by the Group were identified through the
Hemispheric Study of Maritime Narcotrafficking (2003).
