It is probably accurate to say that no one country has discovered the solution but it is also right to say that the development of information-led proactivity is the method favoured by most. Now, proactivity is being used in XXX; there is evidence of successful controlled deliveries but if this is to make major impact on the drug trafficking problem, greater access to originating information has to be achieved.

Does "originating information" mean information that appears (i.e. new information) or does it mean information about origin?

Thank you.

information that gives origin to proactivity

The context makes reference to "information-led proactivity", apparently in the combat of drug trafficking. The proactivity arises from collecting information. To have greater proactivity, it is necessary to have "greater access to originating information".

So I would interpret "originating information" as the information that originates (gives rise to or leads to) proactivity.
