FRA joins European Annual Asylum and Migration Report discussions

FRA attended a European Commission meeting with EU Member States and relevant EU Justice and Home Affairs agencies to discuss the first draft of the European Annual Asylum and Migration Report.

This report is an important element of the European annual asylum and migration cycle, as established under the EU Pact for Migration and Asylum. 

The Pact requires FRA to provide input on fundamental rights. The report will be used as a basis for a European Commission Implementing Decision establishing a solidarity pool for EU Member States under migratory pressure. 

The meeting took place in Brussels on 7 July.
