law enforcement authorities' access to and use of financial information held in other jurisdictions
within the EU for investigations related to terrorism and other serious crime. In this sense, the
proposed directive would grant competent authorities direct access to bank account information

Council's adoption of its negotiating position in November 2018, on 3 December 2018, the European
Parliament's Committee on Civil Liberties adopted its report and mandate in view of
interinstitutional negotiations. This mandate was confirmed in plenary in December 2018.
