Aim of the meeting was information exchange, including ongoing projects and activities in C-IED domain, discussion about the future of C-IED WG and update on STANAGs development.
Forum approved need for a more specific approach to C-IED Joint doctrine development, focussing more on joint aspects, while development of tactical doctrine should be considered. Further more appetite for establishment of additional panels within the WG, in order to coordinate training, exercises and Lessons Learned at joint and national level in C-IED domain, was confirmed.
EOD COE informed about distribution of outcomes coming from “NATO EOD Demonstrations and Trials 2014”, and provided update on the Centres’ activities in 2015.
