Summary:Regulation (EU) 2024/1348 - adopted by the co-legislators on 14 May 2024 - introducing a common procedure for international protection in the European Union (EU). It repeals Directive 2013/32/EU. This is also known as the Asylum Procedures Regulation. Further information:This Regulation establishes a common procedure for granting and withdrawing international protection pursuant to Regulation (EU) 2024/1347. It replaced Directive 2013/32/EU in an attempt to achieve a higher degree of harmonisation and greater uniformity in the outcome of asylum procedures across all Member States, thereby removing incentives for asylum shopping and secondary movements between Member States. A first draft law was adopted by the European Commission on 13 July 2016, as part of a legislative package aimed at completing the reform of the Common European Asylum System (CEAS). It was put forward in the context of the Commission's response to the 2015 migration crisis, in an attempt to introduce a truly common procedure for international protection. The European Parliament's relevant committee adopted a negotiating position on the proposal on 25 April 2018. Despite numerous rounds of discussions, the Council of the European Union was unable to agree on a general approach for this file. The proposal was rescued by the European Commission in September 2020 as part of its New Pact on Migration and Asylum, and an amended draft law was adopted. In September 2022, the co-legislators signed a joint roadmap aiming to conclude negotiations on all the proposals relating to asylum and migration by February 2024. The Parliament's relevant committee updated the negotiating position on 28 March 2023. The Council eventually adopted its general approach on 8 June. An informal agreement between the co-legislators on a compromise text for this file was reached on 20 December. This was formally endorsed by the Parliament on 10 April 2024 and by the Council on 14 May. The Act was signed by the co-legislators on 14 May 2024 and published in the Official Journal on 22 May 2024. |
