The centre is expected to be operational in 2015. "We would like the draft law to pass this session under which the centre would be launched on 1 January 2015," Olekas said.
According to the minister, the centre "will be engaged in prevention of attacks and assistance or solutions after they occur."
The issue related to personnel is being considered. Olekas said that several dozens of specialists should work at the centre, mostly from already operational institutions. LTL 16-18 million (EUR 4.6-5.2 million) will be needed for the new body.
The founding of the centre will be further considered by the Government next week.
