The BMWG has already set up three sub-groups to work with EUBAM Libya. One will draft an Integrated Border Management (IBM) white paper, working alongside all relevant ministries, the second is tasked with establishing a Border Integrated Security Operations Network (BISON) and the third is undertaking an IBM pilot scheme at Tripoli International Airport.

The ICM aims to coordinate the international community’s activities to make sure that support provided reflects Libya’s needs, said EUBAM Libya’s acting Head of Mission Peter Rundell.

Established in May 2013, the role of EUBAM Libya is to support the Libyan authorities in developing a Border Management Strategy and enhancing security at the country’s land, sea and air borders. It has a focus on knowledge transfer, training and support, to help boost the country’s border security in accordance with international standards and best practice.

As part of the Libya’s plans to secure the borders, the GNC Security Committee is now seeking to get the UN arms embargo lifted, to enable the purchase of warplanes and weapons. [/restrict]
