Subject: 1st CISE Stakeholder Group meeting, 15 May 2019
Dear Sir/Madam,
EMSA is organizing the 1st Stakeholder Group meeting for the transitional phase of the Common Information
Sharing Environment (CISE).
The 2014 Commission Communication1 on better situational awareness by enhanced cooperation across
maritime surveillance authorities defines Common Information Sharing Environment (CISE) as a "voluntary
collaborative process in the European Union seeking to further enhance and promote relevant information
sharing between authorities involved in maritime surveillance".
CISE aims to enable enhanced maritime awareness and more effective action at sea, promoting a voluntary
and decentralised framework for these exchanges. Maritime surveillance and the development of CISE is one
of the work strands of the EU Maritime Security Strategy (EUMSS)2, and its revised Action Plan adopted in
June 20183 by the Council.
The Commission has put in place a preparatory action for a transition phase (2019-2020) in view of the
operational implementation of CISE by 2020. The main objective of the transition phase is to further support
Member States efforts so far to implement the CISE interoperability building blocks in their systems and to
offer other entities the possibility to join the CISE network. It also aims to work towards full coherence of CISE
with the overall European maritime surveillance framework and maritime information systems.
The activities to be conducted during the transitional phase and its governance structure have been discussed
and agreed by the Member State Expert Group during the meetings on 25 September 2018, 12 December
2018 and 22 February 2019.
