Recital 16

(16) Considering that the effective tracing and identification of property might require tracing and identifying measures necessitating intervention by other authorities, it is important that asset recovery offices are able to request the relevant authorities to cooperate. The conditions for such requests are subject to national law. Member States can include representatives from both law enforcement and judicial authorities in the staff of their asset recovery offices or establish asset recovery offices both within law enforcement authorities and the judiciary.
