Application of Directive 2004/38/EC on the right of EU citizens and their family members to move and reside freely within the territory of the Member States
Rapporteur (the Member appointed to lead Parliament's work on this text): VĂLEAN Adina-Ioana (ALDE)
Summary
This own-initiative report concerns application of Directive 2004/38/EC on the right of EU citizens and their family members to move and reside freely. Amendments cite incomplete and incorrect transposition by Member States, breaches over entry and residence of third-country family members, and divergent interpretations of 'family member', 'partner', 'sufficient resources' and grounds for expulsion. They reference the Metock case and additional documents required of Union citizens.
