Default Amber Alert in Europe?

Does any european nation have the "Amber Alert" system? In case you don't and wonder what it is...it is a system similar in operation to a disaster alert system. When a child or adult has been abducted and reported, the alert system interrupts all television stations and announces this fact complete with a picture of the victim, location, circumstances...etc.
Several states started using this several years ago and the number of succesful recoveries dramatically increased in those states and ultimately all states use it now.

Just curious!
