Abstract

The article is an attempt to systematize the problem of supervision on police operations undertaken within Interpol. There is no doubt that the effectiveness of the supervision is strictly related to its legal status in the framework of international public law.
Interpol, in the opinion of some experts in the field of international law, does not have the optimal legal solutions and the appropriate ratio for the national law of the Member States. The weakest point of Interpol is outdated and ineffective legal basis for action. In the article interactions of individual forms of operational activities in the course of the exchange of criminal information and access to databases have been omitted due to the extent of the issues.
