The mission of the Container Control Programme (CCP) is to build capacity in those countries that seek to improve trade security and facilitation standards and controls at their borders. The CCP develops capability to profile, target and examine containers being used for the transport of illicit goods.
Objectives:
1. Assist Governments in participating countries to establish and maintain effective container controls that will serve not only to prevent drug trafficking and other illicit activity, but also to facilitate legitimate trade and protect border revenue.
2. Establish and maintain Port Control Units (PCUs), comprising customs and other law enforcement officers, trained and equipped to identify and inspect high-risk freight containers with minimum disruption to legitimate trade and business.
3. Ensure that all PCUs have regular access to expert/mentor services and are encouraged to forge partnerships and links with the trade and business community.
4. Promote closer cooperation and encourage the development of effective information sharing mechanisms between countries participating in the CCP and with the wider customs and border policing community.
5. Ensure that UNODC and WCO, in cooperation with relevant partners, enhance mechanisms for the collection, analysis and dissemination of container intelligence and risk assessment.
