On 4 June, the Committee on Civil Liberties, Justice and Home Affairs (LIBE) is organising a Public Hearing on “Organised Crime and its impact on Internal Security”. The hearing will aim to discuss the escalating complexity and transnational nature of criminal activities which are undermining the European Union’s security and the fundamental rights of its citizens.

This dedicated hearing will provide a crucial platform to assess emerging threats, enhance cross-border cooperation, and strengthen legislative frameworks. By bringing together policymakers, law enforcement agencies, prosecutors, academia and experts, the LIBE Committee can consider and assess coordinated strategies to safeguard the rule of law, protect citizens, and reaffirm the EU’s commitment to justice and internal security.

The hearing will be divided into two panels and will include Commissioner for Internal Affairs and Migration, Magnus Brunner, Europol Executive Director, Ms Catherine De Bolle and State Secretary to Minister for Justice of Sweden, Ms Charlotte Kugelberg. The Italian national anti-mafia prosecutor and a Professor of criminology, with expertise in the area of organised crime, are also invited to attend the Hearing.
