The Best practice guidelines and manuals catalogue aims to establish a comprehensive list of all such documents available within the three agencies, not just those that involve two or more of the agencies, and of guidelines available from coast guard cooperation fora. The Catalogue provides Handbook users with a short overview of each document.
In this regard, the conceptual model of Multifunction Maritime Operations (MMO) developed by the ECGFF could be relevant for capacity sharing, for planning and implementing multipurpose operations, and for sharing assets and other capabilities, to the extent that those activities are coordinated by the relevant agencies and agreed to by the competent authorities of the Member States concerned.
The Catalogue is operated by EFCA in close cooperation with the other two agencies and the Commission.
