Aquapol president gives presentation at the 3rd Inland Shipping Conference in Bavaria
On November 8th Mr. Helmut Oberle, president of Aquapol, presented Aquapol during the 3rd Conference of Inland Shipping that was organized by the BLKA (Bayerisches Landes Kriminal Amt) in Garmisch Partenkirchen.
In his presentation Mr. Oberle explained about the Aquapol network, the way it is organized, the tasks and the goals and the importance of working together to establish safer and more secure inland shipping waterways in Europe. He very adequately pointed out the cooperation with other European agencies like Frontex, EMSA and Europol and he invited all participants to get in touch with Aquapol and possibly join the network. His 40 minutes presentation was very well received by the nearly 80 participants, among which also representatives of the CCNR, Gendarmerie Fluviale, WSP Baden-Würtemberg, WSP Niedersachsen, the Netherlands and Hungary which are also Aquapol members. A more extended report will be published later on.
