Amendment 1 Proposal for a regulation Recital 1 | |||||||||||||||||||||||||
Text proposed by the Commission |
Amendment | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
(1) Control at external borders remains one of the main safeguards of the area without controls at internal borders. It is carried out in the interest of all Member States. One of the purposes of such controls is to prevent any threat to the Member States' internal security and public policy, irrespectively of the origin of such threat. |
(1) Control at and protection of external borders remain the most efficient way to guarantee the long-term security of the Union. Border control at the external borders is carried out in the interest of all Member States. One of the purposes of such control is to contribute to fighting irregular migration and human trafficking and to prevent, inter alia, any threat to the Member States' internal security and public policy and public health, irrespective of the origin of such threat, including where such a threat derives from Union citizens. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||

(1a) The implementation of this Regulation should take into account the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, the Convention for the Protection of Human Rights and Fundamental Freedoms and Article 2 of the Treaty on European Union (TEU). Respect for Regulation (EC) 45/20011a and all Union law relating to data protection should be a primary obligation of Members States when implementing this Regulation. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||

(1b) Border checks should be carried out in such a way as to fully respect human dignity. Border control should be carried out in a professional and respectful manner and should be proportionate to the objectives pursued. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
Amendment 4 Proposal for a regulation Recital 2 | |||||||||||||||||||||||||
Text proposed by the Commission |
Amendment | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
(2) The phenomenon of foreign terrorist fighters, many of whom are Union citizens, demonstrates the necessity to strengthen the checks at external borders with regard to Union citizens |
(2) Although minimum systematic checks based on a rapid and straightforward verification of the validity of the travel document is currently the rule for persons enjoying the right of free movement under Union law, the phenomenon of foreign terrorist fighters, many of whom are Union citizens, and the evolution of organised crime, demonstrate the necessity to strengthen the checks at external borders with regard to Union citizens by consulting relevant databases and, where there is doubt as to the authenticity of the travel document or the identity of its holder, verification of biometric identifiers. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
Amendment 5 Proposal for a regulation Recital 2 a (new) | |||||||||||||||||||||||||

(2a) An equivalent level of security should be afforded to Union citizens throughout the Union. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
Amendment 6 Proposal for a regulation Recital 3 | |||||||||||||||||||||||||
Text proposed by the Commission |
Amendment | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
(3) The documents of persons enjoying the right of free movement under Union law should therefore be checked systematically against relevant databases related to stolen, misappropriated, lost and invalidated travel documents in order to avoid that persons hide their real identity. |
(3) The documents of persons enjoying the right of free movement under Union law should therefore, as a general rule, be checked systematically, on entry into and on exit from the territory of the Union, against relevant databases related to stolen, misappropriated, lost, fraudulent and invalidated travel documents in order to avoid that persons hide their real identity. Member States should ensure an electronic connection to Interpol 's Stolen and Lost Travel Documents database (SLTD ) at external border crossing points. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
Amendment 7 Proposal for a regulation Recital 4 | |||||||||||||||||||||||||
Text proposed by the Commission |
Amendment | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
(4) Border guards should for the same reason also systematically check persons enjoying the right of free movement under Union law against relevant national and European databases in order to ensure that they do not represent a threat to internal security or public policy. |
(4) Border guards should for the same reason also systematically check persons enjoying the right of free movement under Union law against relevant national and European databases in order to ensure that they do not represent a threat to internal security or public policy. To that end, the Member States should ensure that their border guards have access to the relevant national and European data banks, including the Schengen Information System (SIS) and the Europol Information System (EIS). | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
Amendment 8 Proposal for a regulation Recital 5 | |||||||||||||||||||||||||
Text proposed by the Commission |
Amendment | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
(5) Technological developments allow in principle to consult relevant databases without delaying the process of crossing the border, as the controls on documents and persons can be carried out in parallel. It is therefore possible without negative effect on persons travelling in good faith to strengthen checks at external borders to better identify those persons who intend to hide their real identity or who are subject to relevant alerts for security reasons or for arrest. Systematic checks should be carried out at all external borders. However, if systematic checks at land and sea borders were to have a disproportionate impact on the flow of traffic at the border, Member States should be allowed not to carry out systematic checks against databases but only if based on a risk analysis assessing that such a relaxation would not lead to a security risk. Such risk assessment should be transmitted to the Agency for the Management of Operational Cooperation at the External Borders of the Member States of the European Union established by Council Regulation (EC) No 2007/2008 and be the subject of regular reporting both to the Commission and to the Agency |
(5) Technological developments allow in principle to consult relevant databases with a limited effect on the duration of crossing the border, as the controls on documents and persons can be carried out in parallel. Synergies, convergence and interconnectivity between information systems and their corresponding infrastructure for Union border management and for customs operations should be structurally improved by making data management in the Union more effective, efficient, interoperable and compatible, with full respect for data protection requirements, in order to better protect the external borders and enhance the internal security of the Union, for the benefit of all Union citizens. Strengthening checks at external borders to better identify those persons who intend to hide their real identity or who are subject to relevant alerts for security reasons or for arrest could have a negative effect on persons travelling in good faith. Nevertheless, as a general rule, systematic checks should be carried out at all external borders. The use of passenger information received in accordance with Council Directive 2004/82/EC7a, or with other Union or national law, may contribute to accelerating the process of required checks during the border crossing process. However, if systematic checks at borders were to have a disproportionate impact, for example on the flow of traffic at the border, Member States concerned should be able to carry out targeted checks against all relevant databases at specified border crossing points, but only if based on a risk assessment evaluating that such a relaxation would not lead to a security risk. Such risk assessment should be based on a set of common risk indicators developed by the Commission, in close cooperation with the European Agency for the Management of Operational Cooperation at the External Borders of the Member States of the European Union established by Council Regulation (EC) No 2007/20047b ('the Agency') and with the Council. The risk assessment should be immediately transmitted to the Agency , to the Commission and to any Member State sharing a border with the Member State concerned and should be the subject of regular reporting to the European Parliament, to the Commission and to the Agency | ||||||||||||||||||||||||

(5a) It should be possible for border guards to decide not to check relevant databases regarding a person enjoying the right of free movement under Union law if it can be clearly assessed that that person does not jeopardise the internal security of any of the Member States. Such persons could include, inter alia, children under the age of 12 and minors accompanied by parents; school pupils when travelling on organised excursions; elderly persons when travelling in an organised manner; pilots of aircraft and other crew members; Heads of State or government and the members of their delegations; holders of diplomatic, official or service passports and members of international organisations; rescue services, police and fire brigades and border guards; off-shore workers; holders of permits required by national law in accordance with specific Member States' arrangements in bilateral agreements as referred to in point (a) of Article 4(2) of Regulation (EU) 562/2006 of the European Parliament and of the Council1a. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
