Downward trend

1 As of January 2020. Due to the ongoing nature of the cases, the figures in this column can change after the reporting period.

2 The projection for 2021-2023 of the need for judicial cooperation in these crime areas is based on casework trends over the previous 5 years.

3 Itinerant criminal networks operating across the European Union, usually specialised in crime areas such as burglary, robbery of armoured vehicles, and metal theft.

4 Crimes against the financial interests of the European Union for which Eurojust retains competence.
