EU Return policy Clause Samples

EU Return policy. Since the Tampere European Council summit of 1999, a common return policy was perceived as a means of dealing with illegal immigration within the scope of a common immigration and asylum policy.“Return and readmission are integral and vital components” of the common policy on immigration and asylum.56 An effective return policy is a “necessary element of a well managed migration policy”.57 An important instrument in the return policy was adopted by the Justice and Home Affairs Council after the 2001 Laken summit, stressing the need for an action plan on illegal immigration, reaffirmed by the 2002 Seville Summit: The Return Action programme.58 The programme is based on the Green Paper on return of the same year and foresees in the development of both short- and long-term measures, as well as the adoption of common minimum standards in the area of return. The aims following the programme are improved operational co-operation among member states, common minimum standards or guidelines on return and intensified cooperation with third-countries. The first area of measures proposed under the return action programme target the establishment of information systems that allow identification of apprehended irregular migrants: the Visa Information System59 and the second generation of the Schengen Information System.60 These systems allow competent authorities to access the available information of certain categories of persons. Minimum standards on return were finally adopted with Directive 2008/115/EC61 which set time limits to detain a third country national, favours voluntary return, regulates the entry ban and so on. The adoption of the directive required more than a simple call for it in the Return Action Programme; the 2004 Brussels summit requested the establishment of an effective removal and 56 Return policy on illegal residents, COM(2002) 564 final, p. 6. 57 Directive 2008/115/EC, 16 December 2008 on common standards and procedures in Member States for returning illegally staying third-country nationals, OJ L 348 of 24 December 2008, 98. 58 European Union, Return action programme, 28 November 2002, Doc. 14673/02. 59 Decision of the Council, N° 2004/512/EC , 8 June 2004, establishing the Visa Information System (VIS), OJ L 213 of 15 June 2004, 5-7. 60 COM (2006) 383.Proposal for a Council Regulation amending regulation (EC) n° 2424/2001 on the development of the second generation Schengen Information System (SIS II). 61 Directive 2008/115/EC of 16 December ...
