1. SITUATION

1.1 Bosnia and Herzegovina

1.1.1 General

The current Joint Action for EUPM in Bosnia and Herzegovina (BiH) will expire on 31 December 2009. EUPM, supported by the European Union Special Representative (EUSR) and the European Commission (EC) institution-building programmes and as part of the broader rule of law approach, has contributed in developing sustainable policing arrangements under BiH ownership. EUPM's achievements to date include:

• EUPM supported progress in implementing police reform with a key advisory role. • Despite a complex and challenging political environment, EUPM supported the development of State level institutions (State Investigation and Protection Agency, Border Police, Ministry of Security) and other bodies (BiH Interpol). • EUPM supported the development of a nascent local capacity in the fight against organised crime and corruption. EUPM's advice on the planning and conduct in organised crime investigations has yielded some concrete results, including in high-level cases, and has improved the cooperation between police services in Bosnia and Herzegovina. • With regard to police-prosecution, EUPM helped to transform previously confrontational attitudes into practical arrangements to improve the quality of investigations. Practical coordination at the local level has started to yield results thanks to the targeted anti-organised crime approach of EUPM.

However, at the end of its ongoing two-year mandate, EUPM will not have reached the desired end- state, in particular as concerns a sustainable, effective capability developed by the BiH authorities in the fight against organised crime and corruption, including exchange of information between all relevant Law Enforcement Agencies in BiH as well as regional and international cooperation.

13356/09 EXT 1 PH/jm 6

ANNEX DGC 1C

EN

While progress has been made, there is a clear need to further enhance BiH's capacity to fight organised crime and corruption. A continuation of the ESDP mission will therefore be necessary, building on the achievements of EUPM, to support BiH authorities and State level Law Enforcement Agencies in the fight against organised crime and corruption.

1.1.2 Political situation

The political situation in BiH remains fragile. Nationalist rhetoric challenging the sovereignty, territorial integrity and constitutional order of the country continues to characterise the political scene.

Implementation of the Stabilisation and Association Agreement (SAA), signed in June 2008, provides the key platform for BiH to take forward the European integration process in parallel with other necessary reforms. While implementation of the Interim Agreement is proceeding, limited progress is being made on the EU reform agenda, despite a proclaimed commitment to it.

In November 2008, SNSD leader Milorad Dodik, SDA leader Sulejman Tihic and HDZ leader Dragan Covic agreed a joint statement (the so-called "Prud Agreement"), demonstrating apparent willingness to reach a political compromise on certain key issues facing the country. The Agreement constitutional reform, resolution of the property issue, implementation of Annex 7 (returns policy), organisation of a census, a constitutional solution for Brcko's Final Award and BiH Fiscal Council and budget issues. The agreement has so far been able to produce limited results but remains of great importance as it is a domestic process based on principles of dialogue and compromise. Partly as a result of this process, progress was made towards delivering on the five objectives and two conditions1 set by the Peace Implementation Council Steering Board (PIC SB) in February 2008 for the closure of the Office of the High Representative (OHR).

1 Five objectives: Acceptable and sustainable resolution of the issue of apportionment of property between the State and other levels of government; Acceptable and sustainable resolution of defence property; Completion of the Brcko Final Award; Fiscal Sustainability; Entrenchment of the Rule of Law and two conditions: signing of the SAA; positive assessment of the situation in BiH by the PIC SB based on full compliance with the Dayton/Paris Peace Agreement.

The PIC SB will review the situation at its following meetings and assess progress made towards delivering on the five objectives and two conditions for the closure of the OHR.

The next general elections (presidential and parliamentary) are scheduled to be held in October 2010.

1.1.4 Security situation

The general security situation in Bosnia and Herzegovina (BiH) has remained substantially calm and stable. The overall risk to security is assessed to be LOW. Organised crime and corruption represent, however, a continued challenge to good governance and the rule of law.

1.1.6 International community and Third States engagement in Bosnia and Herzegovina

1.1.6.1 Office of the High Representative (OHR)

The international community is heavily involved in BiH via the Office of the High Representative. The OHR is an ad hoc international institution responsible for overseeing implementation of the civilian aspects of the Dayton/Paris Peace Agreement. Since 1997, the High Representative has so-called "Bonn powers" which enables him to remove from public office officials who violate legal commitments and the Dayton/Paris Peace Agreement and to enact legislation where domestic bodies fail to do so. The HR is the same person as the EUSR since 2002.

The OHR employs 34 internationals (10 seconded staff, 23 contractors and 1 international contractor funded) and 189 national contractors. The OHR is funded by the PIC and its budget in 2008/2009 is 11.3 million euros.

13356/09 EXT 1 PH/jm 18

ANNEX DGC 1C

EN

At its February 2008 meeting, the PIC SB set five objectives and two conditions for the closure of the OHR.

1.1.6.2 NATO

After 2004 when EUFOR took over responsibility for maintaining security in BiH, NATO retained a military headquarters in Sarajevo to assist the Bosnian authorities with defence reform, counter- terrorism, intelligence gathering and apprehending war crimes suspects.

In December 2006, Bosnia and Herzegovina joined the Partnership for Peace. Within this framework, NATO and BiH are developing cooperation with a focus on institutional and defence reform. In April 2008, BiH was invited to begin an Intensified dialogue with NATO on its membership aspirations and related reform.

1.1.6.3 UN activities

UN agencies (UNESCO, UNDP, UNHCR, UNICEF etc) are present since 1996 and work together in BiH through a joint implementation strategy called the United Nations Development Assistance Framework (UNDAF) developed in 2004.

Within that framework, UNDP plays a distinct role focusing mainly on achieving the progress in sectors of democratic governance and human security. It has since 1996, delivered 181 million dollars via various human development interventions. Within the sector of democratic governance, UNDP is dealing with Justice and Human Rights with programmes aimed to enhance access to justice for vulnerable groups as well as develop transitional justice mechanisms. This comprises also support to domestic capacity for dealing with war crimes.

13356/09 EXT 1 PH/jm 19

ANNEX DGC 1C

EN

1.1.6.4 OSCE

The OSCE Mission was established under the Dayton/Paris Peace Agreement to lay the foundation for a representative government and ensure the progressive achievements of democratic goals throughout BiH. It does this primarily through four Departments: Democratization, Education, Human Rights and Security Cooperation and a network of offices throughout the country, enabling it to work closely with people and officials in municipalities, cantons and entities as well as with the central institutions of the State.

In particular, the Human Rights Department seeks to monitor compliance of BiH with international human rights standards as well as strengthening the rule of law. It monitors trials in State, Entity and Cantonal courts; identifies problems with both law and practice, and shares its findings with experts bodies reviewing criminal codes and judicial institutions themselves. Legal advisors also follow cases at both the pre-indictment and trial stages, focusing particularly on proceedings involving war crimes, juvenile offenders, trafficking in human beings and ethnically motivated incidents.

The OSCE Mission is made up of a Head office in Sarajevo and 14 field offices, covering the entire country.

1.1.6.5 Council of Europe

The Council of Europe established an office of the Secretariat in Sarajevo in 1996 with the initial task of contributing to the implementation of Annex 6 of the Dayton/Paris Peace Agreement (establishment of the Human rights Commission, Ombudperson for Human rights and appointment of judges) as well as assist BiH to meet the criteria for accession to the Council of Europe membership - achieved in 2002.

The Council of Europe assists BiH in its constitutional and legal system reform, through programmes for assistance and cooperation and through Joint Programmes with the European Commission. The overall objective of the programmes has been to promote the rule of law and

13356/09 EXT 1 PH/jm 20

ANNEX DGC 1C

EN

strengthen the protection of human rights. In February 2009, the Council of Europe launched a project, entitled " Efficient Prison Management", intended to improve the management of prisons, the treatment of prisoners and their conditions of detention in prisons, in accordance with European standards. The 18-months project also seeks to strengthen the structural and organisational side through support for the development of effective operational practices within the prison administrations. The total project budget is 788 736 euros, out of which 600 000 is funded by the European Union.

1.1.6.6 International Financial Institutions (IFIs)

1.1.6.6.1 International Monetary Fund (IMF)

The IMF office in BiH was opened in 1997 and restructured in 2008. It currently maintains a small office in Sarajevo to enable IMF's ongoing surveillance of economic development in the country.

On 5 May 2009, the National Fiscal Council and the IMF mission reached an agreement on a three- year Stand-By Arrangement worth 1.2 billion euros (600 percent of BiH's quota). Provided the Executive Board gives its final approval and BiH fulfils the necessary conditions, the first tranche of funds, amounting to nearly 200 million euros, could be released in July. Although the money drawn from the IMF will be distributed between Entities only, in the ratio 2/3 for the Federation and 1/3 for Republika Srpska (RS), all levels of government in BiH agreed to share the burden of the fiscal gap and to implement the appropriate savings measures. The total savings that the authorities committed to create through reforms and cost-reductions in 2009 amount to 610 million KM. Savings at State level will be created through restructuring, which implies a reduction of the State expenditures (mainly salaries and material expenses).

1.1.6.6.2 World Bank (WB)

Since 1996, the World bank has committed over 1.27 billion dollars to BiH through 61 projects (mainly via interest-free credit).

13356/09 EXT 1 PH/jm 21

ANNEX DGC 1C

EN

Together with the European Commission, WB has also organised three donors' conferences raising about 5.1 billion dollars for post-conflict reconstruction of the country. The WB assistance has ranged from rehabilitation of basic services (water supply, electricity etc) to job creation, financial sector reform and assistance to BiH in the process of the EU integration. The Country Partnership strategy for 2008-2011 evolves around two pillars: improve the environment for private sector growth and convergence to EU; improve the quality of Government spending and the delivery of public services for the vulnerable.

1.1.6.7 Third States

The is heavily engaged in BiH, in particular via the OHR, a large US-AID operation and the International Criminal Investigative Training Assistance Program (ICITAP). The focus of ICITAP has been targeted towards improving law enforcement capabilities, combating terrorism and organised crime including narcotics smuggling, human trafficking, money laundering and public corruption. EUPM has a good cooperation with ICITAP, particularly as regards provision of support and advice to SIPA.

Russia, , and are also engaged, in particular via the OHR.

1.1.7 EU Action in Bosnia and Herzegovina

The EU is present in BiH with the wide range of Community and ESDP instruments.

1.1.7.1 European Community Activity

The European Community instruments in BiH can be summarized around three main elements: – Stabilisation and Association Process, which provides the framework for the European perspective of BiH. BiH is a potential candidate country for EU accession. The Stabilisation and Association Agreement was signed on 16 June 2008, the Interim Agreement entered into force on 1st July 2008. A new European partnership adopted on 18 February 2008 commits the country to a set of reform priorities.

13356/09 EXT 1 PH/jm 22

ANNEX DGC 1C

EN

– EC financial assistance: is channelled through the Instrument for Pre-Accession Assistance (IPA) which supports preparations for accession through institution-building and investments and responds to the needs as regards the political, economic and acquis related criteria. Indicative allocations are for 2009: 89.1 millions euros, 2010: 106.0 millions euros, 2011: 108.1 millions euros. Ongoing projects or in the pipeline to support police forces include a CARDS 2006 project of 768 500 euros on police restructuring in BiH, a CARDS 2006 project of 500 000 euros on support to the BiH border police, an IPA 2007 project of 400 000 euros on a Joint training of the SIPA Financial Intelligence Unit and Crime Investigation Unit and an IPA 2008 project of 2 million euros to support police reform. – Visa Liberalisation Roadmap: a dialogue on visa liberalisation with BiH was launched in May 2008, based on a detailed roadmap containing clear and realistic benchmarks in the areas of Document security; Illegal Migration, including readmission; Public order and Security; and External Relations and Fundamental Rights. A preliminary assessment on the implementation of the roadmap was undertaken on the basis on a series of experts missions and lead to reports presented in May 2009. In July, the Commission assessed positively the progress made by BiH but indicated that further works needs to be done. If the pace of reforms is maintained and if all the roadmap conditions are fulfilled, the Commission could envisage making a new proposal to the Council for visa liberalisation by mid-2010.

1.1.7.2 European Union Special Representative (EUSR)

The current mandate of the EUSR is based on the policy objectives of the EU in BiH, i.e. continued progress in the implementation of the Dayton/Paris Peace Agreement in accordance with the OHR's Mission Implementation Plan, continued progress in the Stabilisation and Association process, with the aim of a stable, viable, peaceful and multi-ethnic BiH, cooperating peacefully with its neighbours and irreversibly on track towards EU membership.

It includes a leading role in EU political coordination and ensuring coherence of all EU players in theatre, offering local political guidance without prejudice to the respective chain of command.

The EUSR is currently the same person as the HR, which gives him specific leverage.

13356/09 EXT 1 PH/jm 23

ANNEX DGC 1C

EN

Without prejudging any PIC decision on the OHR closure, the EU is planning for a future reinforced EUSR for the post-OHR period, based on the following assumptions: – combining the functions of the future EUSR and the Commission Head of Delegation in the of a "personal/double-hating" arrangements; – adequate and adjusted instruments ("tool ") at the disposal of the future EUSR/EC Head of Delegation; – ensuring an overall coordination role of EU in issues related to the rule of law and security sector reform through resources within the EUSR office, in coordination with EUPM and without prejudgement of the latter's mandate; – strong IC coordination to be retained.

1.1.7.3 EUFOR ALTHEA

The EU military operation was launched in December 2004 and reconfigured in 2007. Its key military tasks are to: – provide a military presence in order to monitor and ensure continued compliance with the military aspects of the Dayton/Paris Peace Agreement and deny the conditions for a resumption of violence; – contribute to a safe and secure environment in BiH, thereby allowing EU and other IC actors to carry out their responsibilities; – conduct information activities in support of EU political objectives; – manage any residual aspects of the Dayton/Paris Peace Agreement.

Its key supporting tasks are to: – provide support and advice, within means and capabilities, to the EUSR and other EU and IC actors in BiH; – provide continued support to the BiH authorities on defence reform, within means and capabilities, as required; – provide support, within means and capabilities, to the International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia (ICTY) and relevant authorities, including the search for Persons Indicted For War Crimes (PIFWCs);

13356/09 EXT 1 PH/jm 24

ANNEX DGC 1C

EN

– provide in extremis evacuation support within means and capabilities to IC officials.

As of June 2009, the total number of troops is approximately 2200, from a total of 27 nations (22 EU Member States and 5 non-EU Troop Contributing Nations). The operation is intelligence- driven: situational awareness is provided through a matrix of Liaison and Observation Team (LOT) houses, regional coordination centres and air-to-ground surveillance and reconnaissance. Manoeuvre elements comprise a multinational manoeuvre battalion and an Integrated Police Unit (IPU). Reserves are drawn from the EU-NATO shared operational reserve forces and KFOR TACRES mutual support.

Preparatory work is ongoing for a possible evolution of ALTHEA towards a non-executive capacity-building and training operation. The political decision on the possible evolution of Operation ALTHEA, would need to take political developments, including future role of the EU Special Representative, into account.

1.1.7.4 Member States activity

EU MS are engaged via numerous bilateral projects in BiH on various aspects of strengthening of the rule of law in general. (i.e. Basics of community policing in BiH, Identification of documents, Project for juvenile delinquency etc).

1.1.8 Risk assessment1 The general security situation in Bosnia and Herzegovina (BiH) has remained substantially calm and stable.

There are some very limited indications of threats in BiH, but these are unlikely to materialise during this period.

The overall risk to security is assessed to be LOW.

1 "Bosnia and Herzegovina- Risk Assessment" (25 March 2009)

13356/09 EXT 1 PH/jm 25

ANNEX DGC 1C

EN

At present BiH is not a target for terrorist organisations. There is no reliable information to indicate that terrorist groups are operating in BiH in an organised manner, nor are there any indications of an actual terrorist threat emanating from the country.

The risk of terrorist acts is therefore assessed as LOW.

Regionally, the threats from mines remains HIGH, although a lot of effort has been made to limit dangerous areas and in de-mining.

The risk assessment will be continuously updated in parallel to the development of plans. Changes in the risk assessment of EUPM may also depend on the implementation of its mandate. An increased and more visible role in fighting organised crime could increase the threat of counteraction from organised crime against local and international personnel.

2. STRATEGIC GUIDANCE

2.1 EU Political Objectives

2.1.1 Long term objectives

A stable, viable, peaceful and multi-ethnic BiH, cooperating peacefully with its neighbours and irreversibly on track towards EU membership.

2.1.2 Medium term objectives

Supporting BiH's progress towards EU integration through its own efforts, including through increasing ownership by the BiH authorities and strengthening the capacities of its institutions.

13356/09 EXT 1 PH/jm 26

ANNEX DGC 1C

EN

2.1.3 Short term objectives

Building on earlier achievements of EUPM, ensuring greater success in the fight against organised crime and corruption. Strengthening the capacities of SIPA and other State level institutions, including sustainable coordination, cooperation and accountability1 mechanisms, as well as further enhancing police-prosecutor relations, thereby contributing to an improved functioning of the criminal justice system. Further enhancing international and regional law enforcement cooperation in relation to the fight against organised crime and corruption.

2.2 CivOpCdr's Intent

The Civilian Operation Commander's (CivOpCdr) intent is to provide support and assistance to BiH authorities in the fight against organised crime and corruption in a streamlined and integrated approach. The mission will further enhance BiH police and other LEAs capacities to take on an intelligence led approach in the fight against organised crime and corruption. A comprehensive provision of support will call for proactive monitoring, mentoring, advising and inspecting from the mission's international staff, with a wide range of police and law enforcement expertise, displaying highest standards of integrity2.

The mission will continue with a predominant co-location methodology at key functions in relevant LEAs, focusing primarily on State level. Additionally the mission will also be located in 4 regional offices. Each regional office will consist of relevant ranges of expertise and relevant numbers of staff, appropriate to meet the needs of that specific region, ensuring an integrated approach in the support to BiH authorities in their fight against organised crime and corruption. The regional offices will have a strong mobile capacity to ensure that they can shoulder operational needs linked to the mission's mandate.

To mirror the core objectives of the mission and to adjust to the complex nature of ESDP operations, the structure of the mission will include a Mission Analytical Capability (MAC). This

1 The notion of accountability refers to BiH relevant LEAs. 2 The SOP (Code of Conduct of Personnel) may be adapted as appropriate in the OPLAN.

new element will be at the core of EUPM's information processes, providing situational awareness and enabling the HoM to have an information led approach. The MAC will inter alia: • Improve reporting to the chain of command and EUSR; • produce technical assessments of events and developments in response to request from HoM/mission management in decision making processes; • process information from all mission components; • assess impact of identified threats and opportunities on the implementation of the mission mandate.

Residual monitoring and advisory capacity in the fields of police reform and accountability will be retained with a view for a progressive transition to European Community projects to be executed in full coordination with EC structures.

The mission will be part of a coherent EU presence in BiH. In particular, coordination and cooperation with the other EU actors, in particular with the EUSR, the relevant EC structures and EUFOR Althea, will be ensured. Coordination with other stakeholders will be a key tenet of the mission.

The CivOpCdr's intent is to establish suitable systems to ensure identification and implementation of lessons and best practices in the mission.

A strong media strategy will be implemented to highlight the refocused mandate of the mission on support to the fight against organised crime and corruption.

2.3 Desired End State

The BiH authorities will have taken significant steps towards a sustainable and effective capability in the fight against organised crime and corruption and will have demonstrated the ability to deliver results. This will include an enhanced systematic exchange of information between relevant LEAs

13356/09 EXT 1 PH/jm 28

3.1 Mission statement

As part of the broader rule of law approach in BiH and in the region, EUPM, while retaining residual capacities in the fields of police reform and accountability, will primarily support BiH relevant Law Enforcement Agencies in the fight against organised crime and corruption, notably focusing on State level Law Enforcement Agencies, on enhancement of the interaction between police and prosecutor and on regional and international cooperation.

EUPM will provide operational advice to the EUSR to support him in his role. Through its work and its network within the country, EUPM will contribute to overall efforts to ensure that the EU is fully informed of developments in BiH.

13356/09 EXT 1 PH/jm 32

ANNEX DGC 1C

EN

EUPM will operate in line with the general objectives of Annex 11 of the Dayton/Paris Peace Agreement in Bosnia and Herzegovina and its objective will be supported by the European Community instruments.

3.2 Duration of the mission / AOR

The duration of EUPM will be two years with six-monthly reviews. The area of responsibility is Bosnia and Herzegovina.

3.3 Review

Mission reviews will be made with the following frequency: – six-months reviews, including a section on lessons identified. Based on guidance from the chain of command, reviews will be conducted in coordination with the EUSR and EUFOR. These reviews will be the basis for modification of the mission's mandate if required. – other reviews at intervals to be decided, as appropriate.

The HoM will be responsible for ensuring that suitable systems are in place to provide input for lessons identified reports.

4. EXECUTION

4.1 Head of Mission's intent

The Mission will be reorganised in line with the CONOPS with a HQ in Sarajevo and streamlining of the field presence to four regional offices in Banja Luka, Mostar, Sarajevo and Tuzla. Physical co-location offices, if not yet present, shall be opened at the HQs of the following agencies: SIPA, the Border Police, the Indirect Taxation Authority, the State Prosecutors' Office, Special Department for Organised Crime and Corruption as well as, once established, the Directorate for Police Coordination.

13356/09 EXT 1 PH/jm 33

ANNEX DGC 1C

EN

EUPM will have a visible presence in support of the overall EU objectives for Bosnia and Herzegovina, sending a strong message of support to the authorities in their efforts to fight organised crime and corruption.

The Mission will be conducted in phases:

1) Implementation phase. Given that the mission follows-on from a previous mandate, this phase will begin on 1 January 2010. The mission is anticipated to become fully operational after a short adjustment phase in order to adapt to the revised mission structure. While the mission implements its objectives in line with the principle of local ownership, it will at the same time reinforce its coordination with EC structures with the aim of preparing the ground for progressive transition of necessary residual tasks to European Community instruments. 2) The post-review phase, on the basis of the conclusion of six-monthly reviews. In order to maintain the current rhythm of reviews as well as the parallel reviews of EUPM and Operation Althea, the first review will take place in spring 2010. The six-monthly review process, in accordance with the assessment criteria set out in the Concept of Operations (CONOPS) and Operational Plan (OPLAN) and taking into account progress achieved, shall enable adjustments to be made to the Mission's activities as necessary. 3) Withdrawal of the mission. Withdraw the Mission based on an exit strategy which will be detailed in the six monthly review in spring 2011 and which will, inter alia, include transition of necessary residual tasks to the European Community.

The HoM will implement EUPM’s mandate using a pro-active, information-led approach, processing and integrating the information available to the Mission, within the framework of its mandate, to analyse how internal and external factors impact on the effective implementation of the mandate itself. EUPM will identify the necessary information requirements, produce systematic information gathering plans and, as a result of that collection, comprehensive assessments of situations, disseminated as tailor-made products to all relevant levels within the Mission. EUPM will draw on its unique position to gather all relevant information, through its predominant co- location methodology, its centrally located information assessment capabilities and its integration into the EU and the larger international community.

13356/09 EXT 1 PH/jm 34

ANNEX DGC 1C

EN

EUPM will apply and reinforce its mentoring methodology in order to increase its operational impact. Partnership with the local authorities will be an important element in order to create a sense of ownership from the Bosnians to the EU's objectives. In this context, it will encourage Law Enforcement Agencies (LEAs) and Criminal Justice Sector (CJS) on State, but also on other levels, as well as relevant Ministries to map out the strategic development of their own respective capacities and capabilities, in conjunction with neighbouring LEAs or CJS organisations, for the next years. EUPM will support this process and, as appropriate, assist in its attainment. EUPM will establish a bilateral assessment mechanism with national stakeholders so to achieve a systematic and regular joint view of activities on both sides.

EUPM will continue the co-location methodology which allows, inter alia, a continuous presence and contact with BiH counterparts, solid understanding of the environment and requirements and the monitoring of appropriate control over the LEAs.

In-Mission training courses for newcomers on local conditions and objectives of the Mission will also contribute to effective mentoring.

Maintaining close liaison with the European Union Special Representative, providing him with relevant information and strategic advice on aspects of law enforcement and the Rule of Law as well as actively seeking his local political guidance and support, in particular in sensitive cases, will also be crucial.

EUPM will have regular exchange with the EU liaison officers network posted in the Western Balkans, in particular in Sarajevo. It will also strengthen its cooperation with EULEX on the issue of support to the fight against organised crime and corruption. Improved exchange of information with EUROPOL on the strategic level, in accordance with the administrative arrangement between EUROPL and the GSC on the exchange of information in the context of civilian ESDP Mission, will also be sought.

Against the backdrop of strengthening the operational capacity and capability of relevant LEAs, EUPM will increase its focus on supporting the local authorities to reach operational success in specific case in the fight against organised crime and corruption.

13356/09 EXT 1 PH/jm 35

ANNEX DGC 1C

EN

Given the fact that the relevant LEAs and CJS institutions at State and all other levels have to operate in an highly complex institutional setup challenging the success in the fight against organised crime and corruption, and taking into account that strengthening State level law enforcement authority requires a systematic interaction of such bodies with relevant institutions on entity, Brcko District and cantonal level, EUPM will assist in establishing systematic communication as well as institutionalized and intelligence-led co-operation and co-ordination between LEAs, strategically co-ordinated amongst others through the Ministry of Security. EUPM will continue to foster systematic co-operation between LEAs and Prosecution Offices, including at regional and EU level.

EUPM will continue to assist the relevant LEAs and CJS institutions on State level in their development of capacities and capabilities needed in their contribution to the fight against organised crime and corruption, through proactive monitoring and mentoring and through delivery of advice and the development of skills and competencies. EUPM will facilitate a coherent and streamlined overall assistance to LEAs and CJS through systematic interaction with other international and bilateral activities, in particular the European Commission, including through joint projects.

4.2 Conduct of Operations / Phases of the operation

Assist in the establishment of information and intelligence sharing links, cooperation and coordination mechanisms between BiH LEAs and other countries, including facilitating regional liaison officers access to BiH agencies, implementing the Council Conclusions of 19 November 2004, recalling the Council decision 2003/070/JHA, and supporting the initiatives of other EU agencies;

13356/09 EXT 1 PH/jm 46

ANNEX DGC 1C

EN

x. Assist in the continued harmonisation of laws or other regulatory instruments that affect the coordination or joint effectiveness of OCC investigations; xi. Assist in the identification of any legal deficiencies affecting OCC investigation and disruption, and in the drafting of adequate legal provisions to support an effective fight against OCC in all areas of the EUPM mandate.

4.4.2.3 Internal coordination processes

These strategic and horizontal processes will require stronger coordination. The European Union Coordinating Board (EUCB) will continue to adopt and monitor main target OCC investigations to ensure progress through the criminal justice system without fatal blockages. The goal of promoting and supporting a similar local process to take over this function as a sustainable replacement will continue to be pursued.

EUPM will: Through the EUCB identify, monitor and assist with the identification , development, investigation and progression of OCC cases. It will assist in anticipating and removing blockages and deficiencies (using internal and external coordination) from selected cases, from the initial intelligence stage, through the prosecution phases to post sentencing risk management

4.4.3 Identification of Needs

EUPM has been undertaking needs analysis since 2003. The process of needs identification is an ongoing process built into the operational work of the mission and will be continuously used throughout the mandate as a strategic management tool.

EUPM will: Through the Mission Analytical Capability (MAC), identify areas of concern that may threaten the rule of law or hinder OCC investigation and carry out inspections to inform ongoing assessment and management of mission work in all areas of the mandate

13356/09 EXT 1 PH/jm 47

ANNEX DGC 1C

EN

Internal: The central node of all information flowing through the mission, will be the MAC as key component of the Policy Office. The MAC will collect, record and analyse mission and theatre activity and consolidate OCC data, political and legal assessment and disseminate the integrated products to the mission management and other mission partners.

The progress of actions and achievements against mission tasks will be managed by the Strategic Advisory Unit (SAU) based on progress reports. To this end, the Advisory Board plays an important role. The SAU and the MAC will regularly review police and rule of law related development needs.

External: EUPM will continue to chair the EUCB which will continue to monitor and facilitate progression of major OCC investigations through the criminal justice system. EUPM will contribute coherently and effectively to the overall reinforced EU engagement in BiH. Cooperation and coordination with the other EU actors will be strengthened and reinforced, as this will be necessary, especially in the post-OHR transition phase.

4.4.4 Coordination

EUPM will a) ensure that civilian ESDP advice and assistance is fully coordinated with EUSR and EC; b) ensure regular exchanges of information and close coordination of effort with other international actors, particularly with EUSR/OHR with a view to contribute to a maximum degree of coherence between EU and broader international community activities; c) ensure civilian ESDP advice and assistance is coordinated and coherent with European Community and Member States activities, seeking maximum synergy of effort; d) coordinate closely with the Head of Delegation of the EC as appropriate and without prejudice to respective areas of competency;

13356/09 EXT 1 PH/jm 48

ANNEX DGC 1C

EN

e) continue to coordinate with EUFOR, in accordance with the Common Operational Guidelines1.

4.5 Benchmarking

A system of action specific benchmarking will be developed during the short initial phase of the extended mission. It will be based on the following criteria: i. That the relevant organisations within the Criminal Justice sector2 have defined lines of accountability and responsibility between each other at strategic management level with regular professional effective inter-agency communication driving coordinated joint planning against Organised Crime and Corruption (OCC); ii. That the relevant organisations within the Criminal Justice sector have established formal and effective two way communication links through permanent contact points for information exchange and cooperation in accordance with the National Intelligence Model and hold regular meetings to improve coordination and progress OCC cases; iii. That the implementation of the measures stipulated in the National Strategies for Organised Crime, Corruption, Drugs Trafficking, Trafficking in Human Beings, Money Laundering and Integrated Border Management by the relevant organisations within the Criminal Justice sector have progressed; iv. That the relevant organisations within the Criminal Justice sector have set and started to implement their own action plans and that they include effective measures to identify and disrupt OCC; v. That the relevant organisations within the Criminal Justice sector have improved efficiency (and budget management) and introduced more effective performance management systems to improve effectiveness against OCC;

1 In view of a possible evolution of EUFOR ALTHEA, EUPM may explore incorporation of up to 20 "Specialised Elements" of the Integrated Police Units from the European Gendarmerie Force (EGF). With non-executive powers and under the direction of the HoM, their tasks would be to: – strengthen the Mission Analytical Capability within EUPM; – enable provision of expertise to assist, support, mentor and advise members of SIPA in criminal intelligence and special investigation techniques, as deemed required. 2 The reference to "relevant organisations within the Criminal Justice Sector" includes all the relevant Ministries, Directorates, Bodies, Agencies and Institutions that the EUPM SAU work with.

That the relevant organisations within the Criminal Justice sector have better functioning internal information and intelligence systems allowing functioning National Intelligence Model intelligence management systems; vii. That the relevant organisations within the Criminal Justice sector have more functioning IT links to relevant national databases and that all necessary staff have proper access which they regularly use; viii. That the relevant organisations within the Criminal Justice sector have established intelligence analysis capabilities producing analysis products (threat and risk assessments) to minimum EUROPOL standards; ix. That the relevant organisations within the Criminal Justice sector are using such analysis products to inform and drive their strategic and operational planning processes (intelligence led policing) to fight OCC together; x. That the investigative organisations within the Criminal Justice sector have increased their capacity to undertake financial investigation and asset seizure investigations and use such capacity in OCC cases they investigate; xi. That the relevant investigative organisations within the Criminal Justice sector have increased their capability and capacity for deploying special investigative techniques resulting in more and higher quality evidence being used in OCC investigations; xii. That the organisations within the Criminal Justice sector have started to incorporate into their organisation’s procedures, processes, training and practices, the capacity to identify, and prevent corrupt ion, malpractice or unwarranted interference in the rule of law; xiii. That the relevant organisations within the Criminal Justice sector have increased their participation in regional cooperation initiatives utilising the formal conventions, agreements and organisations (including EU agencies) which exist for those purposes, including completing implementation of all the measures required to sign an operational agreement with EUROPOL; xiv. That the EUPM will have assisted in proposing and drafting laws and regulations that are better harmonised and more effective in the coordinated fight against OCC; xv. That the EUPM will have assisted to better identify and successfully progress a significant number of OCC investigations to success indicator level D (see below) and also improved the risk management of those criminals so sentenced;

xvi. That cooperation agreements between police forces and prison services, enhancing the maintenance of law and order and providing for sharing of intelligence and information be found, thus providing for a clear mutual understanding of responsibilities and obligations between the police and penitentiary system.

The existing mission success indicator system for assessing the progress of the main target organised crime and corruption cases through the criminal justice system, will be continued, in order to specifically measure the achievement of the objectives of the Mission against benchmarks. Results are measured against the following criteria by the investigation reaching that level:

LEVEL A – Is reached when police begin an investigation into a case that matches the OC definition in the BiH state criminal code. LEVEL B – Is established when the case results in an official investigation being opened by a prosecutor. LEVEL C – Is established when the prosecutors indictment is officially accepted by the court. LEVEL D – Is established when the court renders its final written verdict and sentence is fixed.

4.6. Risks to mission accomplishment

Mission accomplishment will depend on a number of factors.

The Mission will remain an integral part of the international community in the broader rule of law field in Bosnia and Herzegovina. A lack of coordination and coherence among international community partners may have a detrimental impact on mission accomplishment.

In this respect, EUPM’s accomplishments are dependent on a coherent approach among EU actors, promoting the policy objectives of the European Union in Bosnia and Herzegovina.

EUPM’s strengthening mandate will be affected by any controversy between different levels of government in Bosnia and Herzegovina and the International Community if they concern key questions of State-level law enforcement, including discussion about the division of competences.

13356/09 EXT 1 PH/jm 51

ANNEX DGC 1C

EN

Breakdown of communication between key police actors, including at ministerial level, would also put EUPM in a delicate position. Such developments would require utmost attention and would necessitate extraordinary efforts to reach out and communicate with all stake-holders to avoid an acceleration of centrifugal dynamics. This would impact on the fulfilment of more specific technical Mission tasks.

Domestic political developments, in particular absence of support to State level Law Enforcement Agencies (LEAs) will slow-down mission implementation. EUPM will work in sensitive areas which could affect the interest of some elements. Accordingly, attempts to destabilise or even affect the Mission's credibility, reputation or its individuals could be made. The further development of the relevant State level LEAs and judicial institutions may be dependent on the support of political actors whose actions may be motivated by disingenuous motives. They may aim to undermine institutional development and reform processes which will severely impact on Mission's accomplishments.

The presence and role played by the international judges and prosecutors both in the War Crimes and Organised Crime, Economic Crime and Corruption departments are a critical factor in the progressive entrenchment of the rule of law in BiH. A non-extension of the mandate of the international judges and prosecutors dealing with organised crime, including economic crimes, would likely impact on Mission's accomplishments.

The next Risk Assessment produced by the SIAC1 should pay particular attention to this issue. The CivOpCdr will ensure that appropriate Duty of Care management are put in place to cover any potential risk.

4.7 Coordinating instructions

4.7.1 Internal co-ordination in the Mission

d) Promote the importance of proper co-ordination between all relevant actors within the criminal justice sector, e) Use “inspection” methodology to support BiH Police in improving internal and external control, inspection and accountability.

4.7.2.4 Board of Principals and other international community partners

The Head of Mission will remain an active member of the Board of Principals which, under the chairmanship of the High Representative, serves as the main coordinating body of International Community activity in BiH. The Board of Principals meets once a week in Sarajevo. Its permanent members are OHR, EUFOR, NATO HQ Sarajevo, OSCE, UNHCR, EUPM, the Council of Europe and the European Commission. International financial institutions such as the World Bank, the IMF and the UNDP are also regular participants at the Board of Principals. After a possible transition of the OHR, the mission will actively participate in any follow-on coordination mechanism of international organisations in Sarajevo.

The Mission will maintain close bi-lateral cooperation with the OSCE, in particular in the field of criminal justice monitoring, the Council of Europe, in particular with regard to prison reform questions as well as with the US Department of Justice International Criminal Investigative Training Assistance programme (ICITAP).

The BiH authorities will take all necessary and appropriate measures to ensure the security of the EUPM staff members.

The Head of Mission is responsible for the security of the operation and for ensuring compliance with all the security regulations and procedures established by the Security Office of the General Secretariat of the Council.

13356/09 EXT 1 PH/jm 54

ANNEX DGC 1C

EN

The Head of Mission is supported by a dedicated Senior Mission Security Officer (SMSO), who will closely liaise with the Council Security Office on all matters pertaining to the safety and security of international and local EUPM staff deployed in the Mission.

The Senior Mission Security Officer (SMSO) is the key person in the mission security management system. He's accountable to the Head of Mission (HoM), for putting in place the mission specific framework to ensure Security and Safety of mission personnel and activity.

He/she will have regular access to the HoM and will submit all security plans, directives and procedures to the HoM for approval.

The Senior Mission Security Officer will conduct the general management of all mission security aspects i.e. drawing up - or completing - and keeping up-to-date the mission security plan in accordance with the EU Field Security Handbook approved by the GSA Security Office, ensuring effective and secure communications through the IT/ Communications Officer as well as the physical and procedural protection of the EU classified information as per the Council Guide on Security of Information, etc.

All selected personnel should receive a country-specific security and an EUCI security briefings. The Mission will provide comprehensive security training upon arrival to the Mission.

4.9 Information and Communication Strategy

EUPM will be supported by an information and communication strategy (Annex F). The information strategy will define the main objectives, the main themes to be developed and the audiences to which such themes or messages should be directed.

Public Information (PI) activities have an important role in presenting and promoting the credibility of the Mission. A coherent information strategy is needed to ensure that not only the Mission in Bosnia and Herzegovina but also the EU's overall approach towards Bosnia and Herzegovina is well understood.

At implementation level, the different EU actors (Presidency, Member States, Secretary General/High Representative, Council General Secretariat, Head of Mission, European Commission and their respective PI officers/spokespersons) will conduct their information activities in accordance with their respective audiences and practices in line with the political guidance of the Political and Security Committee. While EU actors carry out their respective information activities, increased coordination has to be ensured so that the messages delivered are coherent.

Close co-ordination between Brussels and the Mission will be an essential requirement to implement the information strategy. The information activities of EUPM will be closely coordinated with public information activities in Brussels (Secretary General/High Representative- Spokesperson/Council Press Office and relevant European Commission services).

ANNEX F I. MEDIA

Information and Communication

1. General

The Press and Public Information Office (PPIO) will continue its work under the direct authority of the EUPM Head of Mission. EUPM will cooperate closely with EUSR who is developing a comprehensive information and communication strategy, taking into consideration specific roles and relevant activities of the EUSR, the EUPM, EUFOR and the other EU actors in BiH, both in the short and in the longer term. This communication strategy will be developed against the backdrop of greater responsibility of the EU in BiH after the closure of the OHR. It needs to address existing scepticism in BiH towards EU and present EU actors on the ground as pro-active, efficient and reliable partners helping the country reconcile and integrate into European and Euro-Atlantic structures.

2. Policy

Anticipatory and frequent pro-active communication is instrumental for the success of the mission. The EUPM’s press and public information strategy will primarily aim at maintaining support for the EUPM.

The EUPM will focus on the achievements of local police supported by the mission, in order to build confidence in the national instruments and make local security less dependent on the international presence and more responsive to the needs of the general public in BiH. PPIO will develop a specific communication strategy and plan, building on the achievements of the past years and the EUPM’s support and guidance which led to further success of BiH law enforcement.

13356/09 EXT 1 PH/jm 95

ANNEX DGC 1C

EN

Designated spokespersons are the only authorized persons to communicate with the media. Guidelines for the EUPM staff on talking to the media will be issued as appropriate.

2.1 Target audiences

Target groups are the BiH population 16+, the international community in BiH, local decision makers and opinion forming groups, NGOs and international media. Specific audiences might be targeted occasionally (e.g. citizens living in border areas, young people etc.).

2.2 Themes/Messages

The Press and Public Information Office will deliver accurate, timely and sufficient information on EUPM activities and responses to given subjects. General themes will include: • The EUPM mandate 2010-11 within the general framework of the EU's broader rule of law approach in BiH, in line with the general objectives of Annex 11 of the Dayton agreement. • The new approach of the EUPM (to be further developed after council decision). • EUPM's presence in BiH with the full agreement of authorities in BiH, both at state and entity level, who have undertaken to cooperate fully with EUPM in its work. • EUPM’s contribution to the improvement of the overall rule of law in BiH, including the justice and penitentiary sector. • EUPM’s contribution to further development of professional, impartial police agencies that serve all BiH citizens. • The EUPM as an integral part of the broad range of EU activities (both on-going and planned) in BiH and an important element in BiH's progress toward European Union as set out in the Stabilisation and Association process. • The EUPM as a tool for contributing to regional stability and cooperation. • The EUPM as a key player in the fight against organized crime in BiH and the wider region. • EUPM's actions help facilitate reconciliation and economic recovery by improving police professionalism and efficiency to better fight organized crime and corruption.

13356/09 EXT 1 PH/jm 96

ANNEX DGC 1C

EN

• EUPM’s actions help increase coordination, cooperation and communication between all key players of the BiH justice system, i.e. police, prosecution, court, penitentiary.

3. Press Work

On a regular basis, the HoM will task the Press and Public Information Office to liaise with the media and to participate and organize media briefings and press conferences. In relation to media matters, the press and public information office will: • Issue press releases as requested and maintain an updated database of all media in BiH. • Dispatch press releases abroad. • Request assistance of the OHR/EUSR press office and/or the press office of the General Secretariat of the Council of the European Union, in close co-ordination with the relevant Commission’s services both in Brussels and Sarajevo. • Liaise with the OHR/EUSR, EUFOR, European Commission’s services and, according to needs, other press offices in BiH and the press office of the General Secretariat of the Council of the European Union. • Receive guidance from the press office of the General Secretariat of the Council of the EU / CPCC as appropriate. • Coordinate with other organizations involved in the civilian implementation of the GFAP. • Organise visits of journalists to BiH, with a special emphasis on EUPM. • Develop and implement media campaigns reflecting the mandate of EUPM.

4. Public Relations and Public Information

Good public relations, both nationally and internationally, are an important (operational) element for the mission such as the EUPM, as well as for the EU. Portrayals and perceptions of the EUPM and EU may differ. The EUPM must remain proactive in this regard. Representatives of the international media routinely operate in BiH and their number can significantly increase when special events or incidents arise. As policy, the EUPM will proactively support frequent and transparent media access to mission activities and, in accordance with special occasions, to MHQ in

13356/09 EXT 1 PH/jm 97

ANNEX DGC 1C

EN

Sarajevo.

Public information and awareness are crucial management tools. As part of the overall public information arrangements, the Mission has created and put in place an effective EUPM at www.eupm.org. The site serves as the electronic business card of the Mission. In addition, the site is being used as the main vehicle for the advertisement and reply procedure for any job vacancies as well as for publication of public tenders for the Mission which may arise. The website will be revamped at the occasion of the new mandate. The re-launch will coincide with the beginning of the new mandate, i.e. on the 01.01.2010.

In addition to the revamp of the website, the Press and Public Information Office will ensure the following: • Develop, plan and implement public information campaigns and community policing events both on national and regional level. • EUPM spokespersons will on a regular basis participate in national and local radio and TV programmes. • In line with the overall policy of the EUPM, support the local police in their press and PR activities, including sponsoring of joint BiH police/EUPM public relations or public information events and organizing workshops and trainings for the spokespersons of the BiH police and judiciary/prosecution. • Provide information on EUPM’s mandate, legal basis, and general framework, cooperation with local authorities, programmes and intentions. • Establish contact with all media in BiH (local and international). • Organize EUPM’s participation in the Brussels Open Day in May 2010 and 2011. • Update and maintain the EUPM website.

5. Internal Communication

Internal communication is key to the smooth functioning of an organization and boosts corporate identity. The PPIO will continue to publish a Mission Magazine on a monthly basis (650 copies

13356/09 EXT 1 PH/jm 98

ANNEX DGC 1C

EN

circulation) aiming to inform the EUPM staff, as well as all local law enforcement agencies and fellow European and international actors in Bosnia and Herzegovina and EU about mission’s activities. In addition, the PPIO will: • Monitor BiH media, inform the HoM of any media reference to EUPM and, where required, propose a response. • Produce a daily local media overview for the Mission.

6. Activities Promoting EUPM Objectives and Mandate

It is of key importance that all activities undertaken by the EU in BiH come across as a single, coherent policy for both the short and the longer term. The accent will be placed on the achievements of the local police under the support of EUPM so as to build confidence in the national instrument and make local security less dependent on the international presence and more dependent on the national authorities and institutions. The information and communication strategy will be articulated around the key tasks and horizontal tasks of the mission and be aimed both at the population of BiH and the international community.

1. GENERAL

The EUPM is made up of police and civilian professionals of many countries with varying cultures and legal systems and representing all levels of training and experience. To meet the EUPM requirements and carry out tasks satisfactorily, all EUPM staff members shall exercise patience, tolerance, tact, diplomacy, good judgment and common sense at all times. All actions of the EUPM staff members shall always be undertaken with complete impartiality towards all entities within the EUPM mission area.

In accordance with the aforesaid, all EUPM staff members shall conduct themselves professionally within the EUPM mission and shall adhere to these rules and regulations set forth by the EUPM HoM. In addition to the professional performance of their assigned duties, all EUPM staff members are expected to adhere to highly qualified behaviour standards when dealing with other staff members of the EUPM.

ANNEX DGC 1C

EN

2. CODE OF CONDUCT GUIDELINES

2.1 Professional Behaviour Requirements

All EUPM staff members shall ensure that all lawful orders, instructions, directives and required duties are carried out promptly and completely, and they shall not knowingly neglect any duties assigned to them. All EUPM staff members shall appropriately account for any monies or property assigned to them in their official capacity and shall maintain all such allocations in good order.

2.2 Conduct unbecoming of a EUPM mission member

It is incumbent upon all EUPM staff members to display appropriate public image which reflects favourably on the image of the EUPM. They are expected to refrain from behavior that could adversely affect their credibility, professional image or impartiality.

All EUPM staff members shall conduct themselves in a professional manner both on and off duty. They shall neither engage in political activity within the EUPM mission area, nor shall they publicly express any preference for any political, religious or ethnic entity within the EUPM mission area. They shall respond to all requests for assistance in a fair and impartial manner.

2.3 Consumption of Alcohol

As a rule, EUPM staff members shall not consume alcoholic beverages while on duty and shall not report for or be on duty or appear in public in a state of intoxication. In exceptional cases, with prior consent of the respective Line Manager, the consumption of alcohol whilst on duty may be authorized when deemed appropriate. On such occasions and during off duty periods alcohol consumption must be moderate. This must be particularly well observed in regions or premises where the consumption of alcohol is contrary to the religion of the local population. All EUPM staff members shall bear in mind that they represent both the EUPM and their Contributing States at all times.

13356/09 EXT 1 PH/jm 106

ANNEX DGC 1C

EN

2.4 Illegal use of Narcotics or Drugs

No EUPM staff member shall consume or possess any illegal drug, narcotic or cannabis or any of its derivatives at any time.

2.5 Acceptance of Gratuities

In order to maintain the level of neutrality integral to the EUPM mission, all EUPM staff members shall refrain from accepting gratuities from members of the local or international community. While it is not intended that EUPM staff members should disregard gestures of human kindness and acceptance (e.g. an offer of coffee), it is not appropriate, and shall be considered unacceptable, for any EUPM staff member to accept items of value [of more than approximately 10 euros] from local or international person without prior approval from the respective Line Manager.

2.6 Sexual Services and Child Abuse

Attending or soliciting any sexual services from places of prostitution or trafficked human beings is strictly forbidden. Attending or soliciting any illegal sexual services from any other premises, whether public or private, is strictly forbidden.

In particular, all EUPM staff members are prohibited from: a) procuring, profiting from, or facilitating prostitution or trafficking of human beings; b) having a professional or personal relationship with anyone who promotes or facilitates, or who could reasonably be suspected of promoting or facilitating prostitution or trafficking of human beings; c) visiting or patronizing any establishment that a reasonable person would believe is being used to facilitate prostitution or trafficking of human beings; d) visiting or patronizing a bar, café, or club or any other premises where nude or partially nude dancers perform for an audience.

13356/09 EXT 1 PH/jm 107

ANNEX DGC 1C

EN

In order to comply with this directive all EUPM staff members are required to exercise due diligence to determine the reputation of any bar, café, club or other premises, whether public or private, that the EUPM staff member visits. Additionally, all EUPM staff members are required to pay due respect to any list of ‘non-recommended’ premises (i.e. so called ‘out-of-bounds’ premises) issued by the HoM or his/her authorised delegate.

No EUPM staff member shall in any place within the EUPM mission area procure services of prostitution and trafficking of human beings or attend any properties or establishment known for or suspected of promoting prostitution or the trafficking of human beings unless they are attending these places during the course of official operations while monitoring local police. All such operations must have prior approval of the respective Line Manager.

All forms of sexual contact with children as well as child pornography are forbidden. EUPM staff members must not in any way involve themselves in sexual exploitation, abuse and trafficking of children. In this regard, a child is defined as anyone less than 18 years of age, irrespective of the local age of consent.

2.7 Relationships with Local Population

It is imperative that all EUPM staff members remain objective in performance of their duties. The development of any type of personal relationship with those members of the community that may come into contact with the staff on a professional basis can damage the required objectivity and therefore must be handled with extreme caution and discretion. The mores and behaviours appropriate in the home country of each EUPM staff member may not be accepted or tolerated by persons in the EUPM mission area. No relationship with local population should in any way reflect negatively on the EU or the EUPM. No relationship with local population should cause a EUPM staff member to compromise the objectivity, impartiality and integrity of the EUPM in proper performance of his/her duties. No relationship with local population should lead to any substantiated complaint pertaining to inappropriate sexual advances.

ANNEX I I. INTRODUCTION a. General

Public health in BiH is assessed as adequate with the caveat that Mission members arrive in theatre having previously received all the appropriate vaccinations relevant to BiH and be in good shape. Before joining the Mission, all seconded staff should, under national guidance, be vaccinated and immunised in accordance with internationally accepted guidelines and submitted to a thorough check-up. b. Mission

The medical infrastructure in theatre is assessed as appropriate for most medical eventualities, including emergency admissions. All medical conditions will be treated incorporating internationally accepted best practice. Time constraints on treatment will be governed under international standard best medical practice, and where necessary and appropriate, casualties will under Mission MEDEVAC procedures, be repatriated to the nearest and most appropriate medical facility available to the casualty.

Medical Centre care for all Mission members will be ensured by locally agreed arrangements with local medical practitioners and dentists. These arrangements will in the first instance cover emergency and assessment visitations. Co-ordination and liaison on medical matters will be the responsibility of the Head of Administration.

II. COUNTRY AND HEALTH THREATS a. Climate and Geographical Situation

Climate: hot summers and cold winters; areas of high elevation have short, cool summers and long,

13356/09 EXT 1 PH/jm 119

severe winters; mild, rainy winters along coast.

Geographical situation: Located in south-eastern Europe (44 00 N, 18 00 E), with an area of 51197 sq km, land 5187 sq km and water 10 sq km, bordering Adriatic Sea (20 km), (932 km), (357 km), and (249 km), totaling 1538 km of land boundaries and 20 km of coastline.

Infectious Diseases

HIV, sexually transmitted infections and tuberculosis (TB) remain high priority despite successes against communicable diseases in the past. Further strengthening of the surveillance system and response needs to be emphasized given the changed global epidemiological situation and the emergence of old as well as new communicable diseases.

13356/09 EXT 1 PH/jm 120

ANNEX DGC 1C

EN

c. Other health risks

The table given below provides the top 10 conditions, in descending order, that account for approximately 90% of the burden of disease among males and females in Bosnia and Herzegovina. Cardiovascular diseases and neuro-psychiatric conditions account for the highest burden of disease both among males and females. Because mortality from neuro-psychiatric conditions is minor, disability in daily living comprises the bulk of their burden on the population’s health (WHO, 2003c).

e. Environmental Hazards

Earthquakes (last earthquakes in April 2009 – no casualty). f. Health Care Situation in Bosnia and Herzegovina

The health information system is developed enough so as to provide good-quality information needed for evidence-based policy-making.

Besides some clear improvements, lingering problems remain throughout Bosnia and Herzegovina under this complex organizational arrangement. Although the system nominally offers coverage to all citizens in Bosnia and Herzegovina, in reality many people are not fully covered and have to pay out-of-pocket when using health care services.

13356/09 EXT 1 PH/jm 121

ANNEX DGC 1C

EN

Several countrywide problems contribute to this situation. One of the most hampering problems is that despite the huge administrative apparatus with 13 health ministries and complex legal divisions, no regulation exists to rule over inter-entity issues in health care utilization. So far, and despite serious efforts, there is still no portability of funds from one location to another – for example, from entity to entity, or from canton to canton within the Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina. This means that citizens of one entity/canton are left without cost protection when in need of health care in other entity/canton, and thus have to pay the full price for treatments received, all of which raises serious equity concerns.

Another problem is that the design of the health care system makes it difficult to achieve economies of scale and efficient management. Conversely, there is the issue of minimum required size for maximum efficiency. On the other hand, the size of the bureaucracy and the number of competent technical people required to run the system surpasses the current level of economic development, in addition to adding complex coordinating duties to a not well-trained set of managers.

An UNHCR document summarizes these two interrelated key problems of system access and efficiency. It specifically points out that there are serious limits in access to health care through a combination of complicated and non-portable insurance schemes, a lack of adequately equipped facilities, and a general lack of funds in the system to properly run the health care system. These issues are further exacerbated by transportation problems, such as distance, rugged geography and a lack of public transport options.

The concept of decentralization and recentralization is fundamental to understanding the health system of Bosnia and Herzegovina. As a result of the war and the subsequent Dayton Agreement, Bosnia and Herzegovina was divided into two entities, each responsible for administering its own health system. Whereas Republika Srpska opted for a centralized health system, with one ministry of health overseeing the health system, the Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina opted for a decentralized cantonal system, with each canton responsible for its health care administration and financing. As the Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina opted for the decentralized cantonal model

13356/09 EXT 1 PH/jm 122

ANNEX DGC 1C

EN

of health system administration, the “federal” level was given a limited and non-coercive role that ensures compliance with entity-legislated policies.

I. GENERAL

The HoM retains the final authority to appoint personnel and the overall responsibility to deploy them, both international and local. The deployment plan is based on detailed job descriptions that are communicated to all Contributing States, as well as advertised in the official website.

The employment regimes in EUPM are international secondment, international contract and local contract.

While the seconded staff remains under the authority of their Sending States, all staff members shall carry out their duties following the Mission chain of command and shall act in the sole interest of the Mission. Staff members who find themselves in a situation of conflict of interests are expected to report this situation to their Mission line managers independently from their duty towards the national authorities. Staff members must at all times abide by the Mission “Code of Conduct and Discipline”.

The level of remuneration for international contracted staff shall be based on the “Rules applicable for International Staff Contracted by CFSP Advisers or EUSRs”, as detailed in the Commission Communication C(2007) 1746 of 21 December 2007 on Specific Rules of Special Advisers. It is the responsibility of the international contracted staff member to comply with all applicable national tax regulations.

The rules set out here below are those that apply to international staff only.

Working conditions for local staff shall be regulated by the local social and labour legislation. Employment contracts for local staff shall be subject to applicable local legislation including an arbitration clause. The HoM shall sign all local staff contracts, of which the corresponding job

13356/09 EXT 1 PH/jm 147

ANNEX DGC 1C

descriptions as well as all Mission SOPs form an integral part. The level of remuneration shall be based on the rules applicable for local staff working for the EC.

Further to the rules laid out in the present Annex, the European Commission may amend the rules and regulations for both international contracted and local staff.

II. DEPLOYMENT

Sending States, in liaison with the CPCC acting in conjunction with the Mission, are responsible for ensuring the satisfactory deployment of mission personnel into theatre and extraction during the mission draw-down and closure phases.

International contracted civilian experts are responsible for making their own deployment travel arrangements details, which must be transmitted to the Mission in a timely manner, prior to arrival of the contracted personnel up to theatre.

Decisions for appointments and/or redeployments within the mission are the responsibility of the HoM.

The recommended tour of duty for seconded staff is of 12 months duration. For certain specific functions, the tour of duty may be shorter for operational/logistical reasons.

Mission members are themselves responsible for finding suitable accommodation, located within the area of deployment. Exemptions may be granted by the HoM if there are valid reasons and if security conditions so permit.

III. ADMISSION

Arrivals to the Mission area should take place within the working week – Monday through Friday.

13356/09 EXT 1 PH/jm 148

ANNEX DGC 1C

EN

New arrivals are in-processed by Mission Administration/Personnel Office and issued with EUPM Identification Cards. Sending States ensure that seconded personnel fully meet the criteria of the mission for minimum professional experience, medical and security clearance as well as driving and language abilities.

Security clearance. The international Mission members, as appropriate, must be in possession of a valid security clearance at the appropriate level in keeping with their duties, issued by their respective National Security Authorities. Medical certificates should be provided upon Mission’s request only.

Specific provisions for local staff will be elaborated as appropriate.

Medical clearance. All Mission Members must be certified by the competent national Medical Authorities as being fully able to perform their duties in the environment of a European Security Defence Policy (ESDP) Crisis Management Operation, prior to their deployment to the Mission Area.

Driving. Mission members must be in possession of a valid national driving licence (category B or equivalent). Seconded staff members failing to demonstrate an appropriate standard of driver proficiency are referred to their National Point of Contact, here and after NPC, for remedial action. All contracted staff failing to meet appropriate driving standards are considered to be in breach of their contract.

Pre-mission training. The Contributing countries are expected to provide pre-mission training to their seconded personnel before deployment

Non Family Mission. EUPM is a non family mission. Recruitment of couples, siblings and blood relations can be allowed provided that they would act independently in their area of work, i.e. do

13356/09 EXT 1 PH/jm 149

ANNEX DGC 1C

EN

not work in a hierarchical relationship; do not work in the same unit; and do not have otherwise close professional relationship/significant impact in each other's area of work; and are not in the selection committee of each other.

IV. REDEPLOYMENTS AND EXTENSIONS

EUPM personnel are expected to remain in their positions for the complete duration of their tour of duty/contract. Redeployments can only be authorised by the HoM based on operational requirements. Further instructions are provided in the EUPM Standard Operating Procedures (SOP).

Extension. Rotation and replacement of personnel is ultimately ensured by Mission Administration and confirmed by the HoM or delegate. Extensions are subject to specific rules laid down hereinafter and shall be considered on case-by-case basis. Exceptional withdrawal of personnel may embrace professional, personal, disciplinary and medical situations.

These principles above are also applicable to international contracted staff members as appropriate.

Extension of the secondment of the International Seconded Staff is possible under the following conditions: a) at the internal level within the Mission, the seconded staff member in question is responsible for initiating a request for an extension of the secondment at least three calendar months prior to the end of the ongoing secondment. The request should include reasons for the extension and the benefits for the mission yielded by the extension; b) the request shall be submitted through the respective Line Manager, here and after LM and the NPC to Chief of Personnel. In the case of a negative review of the LM further supporting notes must be submitted detailing the reasons why.

13356/09 EXT 1 PH/jm 150

ANNEX DGC 1C

EN

c) if the LM recommends the extension, he/she will submit it to the Chief of Personnel for his confirmation. The latter submits the request to the HoM for a final decision. The HoM has ultimate authority either to approve or disapprove the request.

The respective LM, NPC and the seconded staff member in question shall be informed of the approval/disapproval of the HoM. If the HoM’s final decision is positive, the HoM shall submit his Formal Request through the CPCC to the respective Contributing State.

The respective National Authority of the Contributing State shall take the final decision regarding the extension of the secondment. This final decision shall be brought to the attention of the HoM through CPCC.

In case the seconded staff member is not requesting for an extension the post is normally opened in the next Call for Contributions (CfC) to allow a transparent possibility for candidates from all Contributing states to apply for the post.

If the LM does not recommend the extension and the Mission Member launches an appeal, an advisory board comprising of the DHoM and a Senior staff member appointed by the DHoM will consult separately with the seconded mission staff member and the LM in question. Subsequently, the advisory board shall submit its recommendation to the HoM for his final approval. If the HoM confirms the extension, the process follows the procedure outlined above. If the HoM does not confirm the extension of the secondment, the post will be offered in the next Call for Contributions.

V. REPATRIATION AND TERMINATION OF CONTRACT/TOUR OF DUTY

An international staff member’s contract/tour of duty may be terminated before its appointed term: a) upon his or her own request; b) upon a request by the sending State; c) for disciplinary reasons according to the code of conduct; d) for failure to meet basic Mission requirements;

13356/09 EXT 1 PH/jm 151

ANNEX DGC 1C

EN

e) because of Mission restructuring and/or downsizing; f) on medical grounds, as certified by a competent physician and for seconded personnel, approved by sending State; g) if facts come to light which, if known before, would have precluded the secondment or contracting (such as a proven instance of dishonesty during the recruitment process or the withholding of essential information).

A decision of the HoM is necessary.

In the cases detailed in V. a), d) and e) set out above a one-month notice period applies. In all other cases, the termination can be immediate, subject to the decision of the HoM, after appropriate consultations with the relevant authorities of the concerned Contributing State.

In the case of seconded personnel, all costs associated with such repatriation and the arrival of a replacement to complete the tour of duty, if applicable, are at the expense of the Sending State.

IX. ANNUAL LEAVE (AL), COMPENSATORY TIME OFF (CTO) AND UNPAID LEAVE (UPL)

The Leave and Compensatory Time Off regulations outlined below are intended to enable all Mission members to set a realistic work pace that can be sustained over any length of time during the Mission while, at the same time, meeting the recreational needs of Mission members. Line managers shall oversee the preparation of a projected leave schedule to ensure that all staff are given the opportunity to utilise leave entitlements.

The granting of compensatory time off remains subordinate to operational requirements. a. Categories of leave and applicable policies: a) Annual Leave (AL) – 2.5 days of AL are earned per completed month of service, counting from the date of registration with EUPM. AL may be taken separately or in conjunction with other types of leave. b) Compensatory Time Off (CTO) – 1.5 days of CTO are earned per completed month of service, counting from the date of registration with EUPM. CTO is considered to cover: • all overtime duty performed for operational reasons; • all standby available duty (on-call duty).

CTO may be taken separately or in conjunction with other types of leave. c) The combined AL and CTO earned during the last month of the employment is calculated as follows: • if the incomplete month is more than 6 days, 1 AL day; • if the incomplete month is more than 13 days, 2 AL days; • if the incomplete month is more than 20 days, 2 AL and 1 CTO day; • 2.5 AL and 1.5 CTO days are only earned on the completion of a full month of service.

13356/09 EXT 1 PH/jm 155

ANNEX DGC 1C

EN

d) CTO and AL may be taken separately or in conjunction, with the limitation that no more than 23 (twenty three) calendar days, including weekend periods and Mission holidays, are spent out of work in one stretch. In exceptional circumstances a Mission member can take more than 23 calendar days off, subject to the approval by the HoM or delegate.

Mission Holidays, as approved by the HoM, cannot be taken in advance. They can, however, be compensated by a subsequent day off (Accumulated day, AD) should a Mission member be required for operational reasons to work on the given public holiday. The AD is to be taken within the two following months from the day accumulated.

For the operations planning purposes Leave requests can be made up to one month in advance in writing and by submitting a CTO/AL request form to the Line Manager. The Line Manager must not submit this to Personnel Office for certification earlier than one month prior to the scheduled AL or less than 72 hours before the start of the intended leave.

An staff member who has a compelling and valid reason to do so may request a period of unpaid leave. This request must be duly justified by a written memorandum and can only be granted upon approval by the line manager and the HoM. In no case the UPL may exceed duration of one calendar month per year. Mission health insurance continues during UPL, but no AL or CTO shall be earned during such a period. All Mission holidays and weekends falling within a UPL period are considered forfeited. No salary or per diem shall be paid during unpaid leave periods.

AL/CTO may be spent inside or outside the mission area. There is no provision for travel days in connection with 'time off' inside or outside the Mission area. International staff members are required to provide their contact details at their destination while on AL/CTO.

AL and CTO can be taken as full days or half day. Weekends and Mission Holidays are not counted as AL days.

13356/09 EXT 1 PH/jm 156

ANNEX DGC 1C

EN

No payment can be granted for unused AL/CTO at the end of the contract/tour of duty. If a tour of duty/contract for seconded or contracted personnel is extended, a maximum of 12 AL/CTO days can be transferred into the new contract or secondment period.

In the interest of staff health balance, the line managers are responsible for proper leave planning and staff members are encouraged not to accumulate more than 16 AL/CTO days.

In exceptional circumstances and subject to the approval of the HoM or designate, AL/CTO days can be taken in advance, to a limit of five days and provided that the remaining contract/tour of duty duration would allow to accruing the requested advance leave. In this case the termination of the contract/tour of duty, before these days are earned, they are discounted from the last payment.

As an exception to the above rule, the AL/CTO of the last month in the mission can be taken in advance from the moment that the staff member’s official end of mission date is known. No AL/CTO is allowed in the three working days prior to the day of departure.

X. COMPASSIONATE / EMERGENCY LEAVE

Requests for compassionate/emergency leave should be appropriately certified and may only be granted under serious circumstances, such as: a) attendance of the funeral of a close family belonging to one of the below categories: parent, parent-in-law, grand-parent, child, spouse or life partner, sibling, or another relative who was the sole surviving family member of the staff member; b) critical or life threatening illness or injury of one of the above mentioned family members; or c) the staff member’s own wedding and civilian registered partnership.

Staff members are required to submit relevant documents along with a request for compassionate/emergency leave for approval by the HoM, who holds final decision.

13356/09 EXT 1 PH/jm 157

ANNEX DGC 1C

EN

The cases referred to above may entitle a staff member to 5 days of compassionate/ emergency leave, except for point c) above where the entitlement is 3 days.

Compassionate/emergency leave may also be taken in conjunction with earned CTO/AL. The rule of maximum 23 days of absence from duty at one time can be waived under the above circumstances.

XI. SPECIAL LEAVE

Special Leave can be requested to cover absence from the Mission area up to a maximum of 30 days , in exceptional circumstances, on serious professional or legal grounds that are beyond the choosing of the staff member involved.

Authorisation for a seconded Mission member to take special leave must be given by the Sending State. The Sending State must notify EUPM through the Civilian Planning and Conduct Capability of the request for a Mission member to take special leave (such as court hearings, promotion boards, compulsory training courses etc). The HoM will release the seconded Mission member to avail special leave.

Request for international contracted staff should provide supporting documentation which clearly justifies the grounds for requesting Special Leave.

The Special Leave may be taken in conjunction with the AL and CTO but the leave period cannot exceed 23 consecutive days

If the period of special leave requested is deemed to be excessive, the HoM may recommend that the Mission member’s tour of duty is terminated.

XII. SICK LEAVE

Sick leave in Mission area that is not certified by a physician may be taken for a period of two days at a time. The total of uncertified sick leave days cannot exceed six days during a twelve month period. There is no provision for uncertified sick leave outside the Mission area.

The line manager and the NPC must be informed of any period of sick leave taken by a Mission member as soon as possible, but not later than 24 hrs.

It is the responsibility of each line manager to identify and report patterns of sickness which cause concern about the welfare or suitability of a Mission member under his or her authority for Mission life, and/or which impede the operational effectiveness of the Mission. Chief of Personnel is advised to communicate with the individual in question to ascertain the reasons for persistent levels of sickness or absence.

For seconded staff, the Sending State is informed of all periods of sickness exceeding 7 days, or patterns of sickness which cause concern or impede operational effectiveness of the Mission. Excessive sickness levels may result, if necessary, in a recommendation to repatriate the staff member.

The absence of more than 21 consecutive days of a seconded staff member may lead to a request, through the CPCC, to the sending State to consider the repatriation from the Mission Area of the staff member.

The absence of more than 45 days per year of an international contracted staff member may lead to a decision by the HoM to terminate the employment contract of that staff member. Further instructions are given in Staff member’s contract of employment.
