FFA jointed the Oceania Customs Organisation, Pacific Islands Chiefs of Police, and the Pacific Immigration Development Community, in signing the Declaration of Partnership on Regional Security.
The inclusion of FFA in the partnership will act as a force multiplier and strengthen regional cooperation across law enforcement agencies. In practice, FFA members will be an additional set of eyes and ears collecting valuable information and intelligence for the Pacific Transnational Crime Network, as well as being able to access important criminal intelligence, to assist their IUU operations.
