Paris: A French parliamentary inquiry into the terror attacks that rocked Paris in 2015 on Tuesday recommended the fusion of the country's myriad intelligence services into a single agency.

"Faced with the threat of international terrorism we need to be much more ambitious... in terms of intelligence," said the president of the commission of inquiry, Georges Fenech, recommending the establishment of "a national anti-terrorism agency."
