Co-operation IMO / WCO • Letter from IMO to WCO • - Comprehensive data exchange on CTUs (including EDI) • Effective exchange of data between authorities • Establishing criteria to identify high risk movements • Pre-screening of high risk movements • Extending use of modern security technology
Co-operation IMO / WCO • Letter from IMO to WCO • - Co-operation on security issues • Control criteria for "empty" CTUs • Consider the value of "trusted” agents and shippers • Balance between mandatory and voluntary measures • Balance between security and facilitation
