"This initiative forms part of the global strategy to protect critical infrastructures. The EU’s economy and the security and well-being of its citizens depend on the existence and smooth running of a series of infrastructures which provide essential services, such as health services, telecommunications, energy and transport networks, financial services, supply of food and water, and so on.
While some Member States already have robust protection measures and structures in place, in other Member States the situation is still very precarious. It is therefore vital to have a better and more efficient exchange of information and good practices, which will only be possible by setting up this information and communication system.
This system will strengthen dialogue and increase the information available on shared threats and vulnerabilities, as well as facilitate cooperation and coordination between Member States. At the same time, it will encourage the development of appropriate measures and strategies to mitigate risks and promote adequate protection, and it will also increase the security of citizens.
I also support the inclusion of a three-year review clause, which will allow the necessary improvements to be made, particularly the possibility of including a rapid alert system functionality."@en1
