TheEuropeanUnionhasalsopaidattentiontothedataprotection issues incriminalmatters.The Schengen Convention and later Europoland Eurojust establish their own systems forprocessing and exchanging criminal data andintroduced appropriate rules on dataprotection. The FD 2008/977/JAI on dataprotection in criminal matters and the FD2009/315/JAI on criminal records will be

applicable for the exchange of informationbetween the EU Member States wheninvestigating and prosecuting transnationalcriminaloffences.Inthefightagainstterrorismandorganised transnational crime, judges andprosecutors should also apply domesticlegislation governing data protection incriminalmatters.
