Press Release: EU puts European emergency number 112 on the map before the summer holidays

The European Commission stepped up its efforts to promote the use of the charge-free European emergency number 112 in the EU. As of 3 June, 2008, the new website ec.europa.eu/112 will tell citizens how to use 112 and what to expect from it, particularly when they travel within the EU. It also shows how 112 functions in each Member State: how quickly calls are answered and in which languages.
