The '' ' Counter Terrorism Group ' '' ( CTG ) is an offshoot of the Club and shares terrorism intelligence . It provides threat assessments to EU policy makers and provides a form for expert collaboration . The Group was created after 9/11 to further intelligence sharing cooperation between European intelligence structures . CTG , like the Club , is outside of the EU 's institutions but communicates with them via the participation of the EU Intelligence Analysis Centre ( EU INTCEN ) ( a branch of the European External Action Service ) . Although it is outside the EU , its presidency rotates inline with that of the EU Council presidency and acts as a formal interface between the Club de Berne and the EU
