EENA’s objective
Promote the knowledge and efficient use of
the 112 all over Europe, by acting as a
discussion platform bringing together all the
actors (organizations, enterprises and
individuals) involved with the development
and implementation of the 112.
EENA believes in the following principles
• Knowledge of the 112 is a fundamental right – it
can save lives.
• Calling the 112 should result to the appropriate
help, as soon as possible, at the place of the
emergency.
• Right to the same high quality safety and security
standards within the EU.
• Right to the same medical treatment in case of
accident or disaster.
Annual emergency calls
Within the EU, 80 to 100 million emergency calls
• Of which 40 million on mobile phones
– Of which 3,5 million bad location information
 loss of time
– Of which 2,5 million without location information
 cannot sent help
Concerning 100 millions of Europeans travelling
every year within EU !!!

Achievements
• In 2004 the EENA
– Introduced Complaints
• to the EC against 7 MS
– Submitted contributions for
• The discussion on Services of General Interest (112 under a
regulation as RESULT)
• ETSI’s EMTEL group
– Went to the European Ombudsman
• against the EC itself for maladministration on the 112
• 2/3 of EENA recommendations recognized
Achievements
• In 2004
– Information campaign amongst MEP and new
Commissioners
– Second European 112 conference and
exhibition without co-financing (200
representatives from 28 countries)
• In 2005
– As suggested by both ETSI and EC, EENA is
launching a users group within 2 independant
Committees
EENA means of action
• e-mergency project (call for proposals)
– Reach the 100 mio. of travellers
– Re-usable elements
– Multipliers
– Partners
The role of Finland
• Become partner in the e-Mergency project to be
submited through the call for proposals EC will launch by
mid-March
• Be part of the Scientific Advisory Committee of EENA
(already 15 countries represented amongst recieved
applications)
Role of Finland
• Take position within the Civil Protection Managment Committee at
the European Commission regarding future instruments adressing
prevention of, prepardness for and response to disasters and for
wich the Civil Protection Issues Paper does not address the demand
of:
» The EP « called on the Commission to promote the implementation of an
appropriate early warning system for ACP and Mediterranean countries as
well as for the EU coastline »
» European Citizens for a high level protection of their lives, healh and
environment.
» Proposed Constitution (article III-284) dictates that « Union action shall
promote swift, effective operational cooperation within the Union between
national civil protection services »
» E-call has been announced last week by the Commissionner Ms Reeding. It
sounds very performant from a technological point of view but we still have
four years to guarantee that Emergency Services will respond efficently
when the « red button » will be activated from a car. It will work in Finland
but are you sure it will be as efficient in Italy or Greece ? People will pay for
technology or the entire service everywhere in Europe ?
• Host the next European 112 Conference and Exhibition
Finland must promote the ideal 112
taking a strong position
