 == Overview ==
 The Fichier National Automatisé des Empreintes Génétiques (Automated National File of Genetic Prints) is the French national DNA database. A central DNA database was first proposed in France in 1996. The following year, a bill was filed relating to the implementation of a national database for identification of child sex offenders. In June 1998, a law on the prevention of sexually-related crimes created a national DNA database. The implementation, originally planned for 1999, was finally completed in 2001. In the aftermath of the September 11 attacks on the USA in 2001, the French government increased the scope of the database to include DNA related to other serious criminal offences, such as voluntary manslaughter, criminal violence and terrorism. A further “law for interior safety” introduced on March 18, 2003 expanded the scope still further to cover almost all violent crimes to people or property, serious crimes such as drug trafficking, simple thefts, and almost all small offenses, except traffic offenses.  Samples are collected both from suspects and convicted persons.
 As at October 1, 2003, the French national DNA database contained the DNA profiles of approximately 8,000 convicted criminals and another 3,200 suspects. In 2006, the number of entries grew to 330,000. In May 2007, this number approached 500,000 entries. In December 2009, there were 1.27 million entries. The DNA database contained DNA profiles from 280,399 convicted persons,	 62,258 unmatched crime scene profiles and 	934,112 suspects at end 2009. According to Interpol, the number of entries grew to 1.69 million in 2011. The DNA database contained 98,000 crime scene DNA profiles, 1,592,500 reference DNA profiles from individuals, 270 missing persons' DNA profiles and 420 other DNA profiles. At 31st August 2014, the DNA database contained DNA profiles from 2,655,381 individuals and 237, 217 unidentified traces from crime scenes.
