Answer

How can Mallorca improve checks on parcels and small freight shipments?

One practical step is to pay closer attention to small consignments, courier services and parcel flows, not only to large freight loads. Smuggling networks often use shipments that look routine and low-risk, so better risk analysis can help authorities focus resources more effectively. Cooperation between customs, police and transport operators is also important.
