Automated Data Matching in the European Network

The Financial Intelligence Unit may, in a network with the central reporting offices of other Member States of the European Union, establish and operate a system for the encrypted automated matching of data suitable for that purpose, collected by the national central reporting offices in the performance of their tasks. The purpose of that system is to obtain knowledge as to whether an analysis under section 30 has already been carried out by the central reporting offices of other Member States of the European Union in respect of a given person, or whether other information on that person is held there.
