Abstract: The EU has a long-standing ambition to create an "area of freedom, security and justice", as set out in Article 67 of the Lisbon Treaty. A more recent counterpart to this ideal is the plan to create a "true internal market for security", in which companies will be able to sell security technologies, products and services to customers in any EU Member State without being hampered by differing regulatory or technical standards. The first formal announcement of this new policy came in 2012, when the European Commission published the Security Industrial Policy (SIP), with the "overarching aim" to "enhance growth and increase employment in the EU's security industry."
