2019/2206(INI)·9th term·LIBE·INI - Own-initiative procedure·CompletedProcedure completed
Subjects: Asylum, refugees, displaced persons; Asylum, Migration and Integration Fund (AMIF)
Rapporteur (the Member appointed to lead Parliament's work on this text): KELLER Fabienne (Renew)
Summary

This own-initiative report concerns implementation of the Dublin III Regulation. The amendments cite the Charter of Fundamental Rights and Court judgments, and address the responsibility of the Member State of first entry to examine asylum applications, the uneven distribution whereby one-third of Member States host most asylum seekers, the absence of a mandatory redistribution mechanism, deadlines, hierarchy of criteria and transfers, and pressure on first-entry Mediterranean States.

Plenary votes

12 roll-call votes

In plenary, Parliament usually votes in steps: first on amendments to the text (sometimes split into parts, so Members can accept one half of a sentence and reject the other), then on the text as a whole. The “main vote” is the one that adopts or rejects the text itself. Each vote below shows exactly which step it was. How voting works →
