EU ministers back consolidation of population databases

A single agency will be in charge of three EU population-tracking databases under plans approved by EU ministers (OUT-LAW News)
The Council said that a "decisive political agreement" had been reached to back plans for a new agency to be set up by the summer of 2012 to manage the three databases. A proposed regulation drawn up by the European Parliament to establish the new agency receives Ministers' support, the Council said in a statement.
