Schengen Information System (SIS) (1)
01 November 1997
Saxony Interior Minister Hardraht (CDU) has called for quick accession of Poland, Hungary and the Czech Republic to the SIS. He said that in light of increasing cross border crime, this would constitute a second security border for the EU and would facilitate accession of these countries to the EU. The three countries could be integrated into the SIS within 18 months.
